This is a fun little game. You each must say something which "Defeats" or "Stalls" the thing in the post above. Here's an example.

"I am a snail on the ground."
<NEXT POSTER>
"I am salt, which is sprinkled on the snail."
<NEXT POSTER>
"I am a grocer, which takes the salt and puts it into the food shelves, instead of allowing it to be used on the snail."
<NEXT POSTER>
"I am inflation, which causes the price of salt to increase dramatically, so no one can purchase it. It will stay on the shelf."
<NEXT POSTER>
.... Etc! 😃

Get the idea? Get going. 😊 I guess you guys can continue with my trend. I'll help start you off by giving you some ideas:

1) I am the Federal Reserve, which lowers its required reserve ratio, which pumps more money into the economy. (Just roll with me here..)
2) I am the income of families everywhere increasing, so people can buy salt again.

Good luck. 😊

I'm the policeman that catches the murderer.

No. Wait. Here, I'll show you something even more clever. 😉

"I am the scarf he left behind in the crime scene which led forensic trackers right to his doorstep."

That would be much more difficult to counter, so I'll let you pick either the policeman, or the scarf. Your call. 😉

I am the Electric Company's new deal to input money into all emergency vehicles, ensuring they never break down.

I am Dick Cheney who is secretly running the country all by himself. The Bush's decrees are secretly overruled. (Somehow. Maybe Cheney poked bush with a stick to make it happen. Nothing is impossible. 😛 :laughing: )

^ I am people bored with his tone of voice who choose not to vote for him due to a recent MadTV sketch mocking him and his values.

.. But MadTV is awesome. 😃 🙄

Er.. I'm not sure you're supposed to be going in a loop like that. o_o ... The gods used to play this game, (That's why it's called, The Oldest Game.) And nobody was allowed to go in a loop like that. Would you restate something else? :shrug: Thank you. 😊

I am the cat which came along and had children on the mattress, causing the family in front of it to drag it away to witness the lives of the kittens. :shy: .... Which cost the firemen their own lives. 😮dd:
