SerenQUIPity

This is a game I created on Facebook, and now I'm posting it for the benefit of the 4 people who read my blog.

SerenQUIPity is very simple. Instead of posting questions and then answering them, we post answers, and have others think of corresponding questions. Unlike Jeopardy (registered trademark, etc.), there is no 'one' correct question for each answer. And there's nothing to win except your self confidence in your witticisms. You must rely on your imagination to create the most obtuse, unrealistic question you can to the answer.

For example, let's say the answer is:

Spoons.

The questions might be "What eating implement am I most likely to injure myself with?" or "What instrument requires the most dexterity to play while using your legs?"

It stretches the little grey cells, doesn't it? This is also a great way to problem solve. And it's also a way to show your friends that you're really just crying out for help.

Feel free to share this note, edit it, etc. But try it, at least, just once.

Here are 10 answers to start you thinking.

1. Every mother's nightmare

2. Harrison Ford

3. No, but if you leave it in the fridge too long, it'll smell like collards.

4. Blue

5. Heathcliff

6. A bandaid

7. My camera

8. The check is in the mail

9. Barometric pressure

10. Harry Potter and the Witch from Barcelona
