I had a weird dream about this bear with me ok
so it goes like this: The post above you will have three words, and you must write a haiku, poem, short story, ballad, or some other tale. If you want to write a 300 chapter epic you can post a placeholder post for a day, but after that anyone can write about those three words. At the end of your haiku or whatever you get to post three more words.
So it might go like this:
(post 1)
Sock, Otters, Feesh
(/post 1)
(post 2)
Otter chasing feesh,
happy, romping, swimming through
oceans of warm socks
IRC, pens, lighters
(/post 2)
(post 3)
Once upon a time, there was a young otter always on IRC. He typed so much that he never needed to write anymore, and so all his writing gear fell into disuse. One day, he realized he couldn't use his pens anymore, so he took a lighter and burned them all and accidentally set fire to his house. He collected insurance and retired wealthy, and went on to discover the lost land of Atlantis. The end.
Ink, quarters, monkies

...and so on. First reply gets to suggest three topics without having to be creative!
