A random snapshot of recent ideas include "Viable alternative to money , Elderly Physicist Euthanastic Diffraction , Downloadable Vaping , Micro Sushi , Temporarily Nationalized Company , Maximally bright lamp , New start for conversations ,Catapult Plates for Cars , Spontaneous
fission time dilation , legislative office holder and Planetary Habitation Vehicle"
With very slight edits these become: Visible alternative to money , Elderly Physicist Enthusiastic Diffraction, Downloadable Vamping , Micro Slushi, Temporally Notionalized Company, Maximally bright lump , New stoat for conservations , Catapult Pleats for Cats, Spontaneous fission team dilution, legislative offence helper and Planetary Hesitation Vehicle.
The game is therefore to take an existing idea title and by changing, or for more points rearranging the letters very slightly create a new title for which a meaningful idea can be written.
It's very like the "I'm Sorry, I Haven't A Clue" game called "One song to the tune of another", except in this case there is no singing, no music, it's not a panel game, points don't make prizes, and it's never preceded or succeeded by a round called "Mornington Crescent".

I've been playing with an idea for an idea called Temporally

any idea how much it cost me to get the last one removed. |

Go ahead, sonny, if you think you're hard enough, try it. We will kick your head in. |

"You're going home in a blue-light ambulance ... " |

What's that? You already have a Slight Dispelling
Gnome idea that clears the air after someone insults
your gardening decor choices? |

Shhh, [Ray], not now ... we're scanning [Skewed's] brain implant, and he's having naughty thoughts about Brenda, the big girl who works in Goods Inwards ... it's very funny and a bit sad. |

This cleverly sits in the midpoint between the lets all, list,
naming, WTCTTISITMWIBNIIWR, pun, and word invention
m-f-d categories... |

And they said we couldn't do subtlety ... |
|
|
... so we beat them to death and burned their twisted corpses on a bonfire. |

Oftentimes, [8th], your words turn out to be taken
from an interesting or inspiring quote, or
fascinating (if gruesome) nugget of history.
Thinking this might be one of those, I
googled burned their twisted corpses on a
bonfire. |
|
|
For everyone else: dont. Its just hideously
detailed
forensic reports. Really dont. |

For (comparatively) light relief, a lovely article on

Hmm. Ive read a couple of his novels, but not that
one. Id choose Pratchett or Banks in preference. |
|

By the way- misspelling game: genius. I often do
this by accident when reading the titles. [+]. |
