Little Background:
In an attempt to beat out the competition during the usually dismal Sunday night scene at a place I bartend in part-time, management has come-up with a Sunday Night Game Show theme. It’s a mixed (mostly gay) crowd.
Every other week, on the aforementioned Sunday shift, a different Game Show will be played in rotation.
First Week: The Dating Game
It went pretty well. An eligible (and horny) bachelor behind a screen asking corny and provocative questions to 3 guys he couldn’t see but only hear. The next round may include a butch lesbian with a sense of humor & a deep voice mixed in with the 2 guys. The newly linked couple wins a gift certificate to a local restaurant.
Sample Question from previous time played:
Bachelor #1, If you were candy, would you be a Good & Plenty, a Sugar Daddy, a Mr. Goodbar or some other brand? Why So?
Bachelor #2, There are optimists and there are pessimists. When you see a rocks glass filled half-way with scotch, would you say the ice is closer to the bottom or the top of the glass?
Third Week: Newly ‘Wed’ Game
Four couples answer intimate questions about one another and correct matches win points. Couple with the highest points wins yet another gift certificate to a local restaurant.
Sample Question from previous time played:
If you S/O was an animal, what type of animal would he be?
What part of your body does your lover totally neglect?
Fifth Week: Match Game
My favorite so far. Everyone in attendance gets to play 2 rounds & alternates between being a contestant and a ‘celebrity’. Played off until the winner gets a bar tab. Because it requires a lot of questions, it’s also the most difficult to write for.
Sample Question from previous time played:
Golden ________ .
(Ironically the fat guys said ‘Arches’, the queens said ‘Girls’ and the pervs said ‘Shower’).
Kenny the bartender is so dumb, (how dumb is he?), the last time he used an ATM instead of using his bank card, he inserted his ____________.
So I ask you, ever-resourceful & creative ones, frustrated writers and the like:
If you feel like writing and contributing a couple of (witty, crude, innuendo-filled or downright disgusting) questions (especially for Match Game), please feel free to let your hair down and let it rip.
Here’re a couple maybe there’s a good one in there…
The Dating Game
1)How many licks would it take to get to the center of your tootsie pop? (My west hollywood lifestyle, whatever)
Newlywed Game
1)(if heaven existed) what would be the one habit that your partner does that would keep him/her out?
2)What’s the most embarrassing thing your partner has said while making whoopie? (I just had to use that word)
3)In the musical of your S/O’s life, would they be “Auntie Mame”, “Little Orphan Annie”, or “Annie Get Your Gun”?
4)Who has more gas, you or your partner?
5)I would be embarrassed if my mom found the _____ that’s in our bedroom.
Match Game
1.)Madonna’s career is now so pathetic that not only she’ll kiss Brittany Spears but she’ll ____anything that walks by.
2)12 inches of ______
3)After denying any wrong doings, Prince Charles has finally confessed to doing _____ in the bathroom.
For starters, Thanks stpauler for your question proposals…they’re very good and have been copied, pasted & prepped to be e-mailed to the ‘powers that be’ (i.e. the crew in charge of putting together q’s for next weekend’s game).
For the less-creative dopers who wish to submit a question they remember from any of the 3 game shows:
Please feel free to do so. All 3 programs are so old, that even if anyone heard a recycled question they wouldn’t be bothered by it - fact is it’s the people’s responses to the questions that make them funny. In other words, ‘borrowing’ or ‘lifting’ some moldy oldies that you recall from reruns on the Game Show Network is encouraged.
I know there are some creative types out there who can come up with at least a few things. Who knows, maybe some people that posted in the following four memorable & hysterical threads may wanna lend a hand.
I was thinking mainly of:[ul]

…occasionally search the boards for their own user name. If they do, I know that even if they can come up with stuff only 1/10 as funny as the plane crash posts I read, they’ll still be side-splitting.
[li]For those who have a knack for writing alternate-lifestyle humor, the first coming to mind being Help name a gay-bowling team in IMHO last Xmas and the second being the outrageous Ask “The Straight Eye for the Gay Guy” thread by Satisfying Andy Licious that had a 3 month run & just stalled in MPSIMS about 2 weeks ago.[/li]

…maybe just a few of them like to keep tabs on who’s bandying their screen name about & will get drawn in and come up with a few ideas.[/ul] Thanks to any and all who can help ‘out’.
I was the same I was like " Wow, I have been name-checked for the 1st time ever twice in the same post"
Then I realised the entire SDMB cast were here and I thought " Meh."
But while I am here I may as well do some work. How about-
You are at work scrawling your phone number on the wall of the toilet cubicle when you notice a cam-corder peeking out through a ceiling tile above you, do you -
a)Steal the camera. It’s a nice camera and you know there won’t be any come-back. Besides you will get to watch what has been taped already ?
b)Call the police and perhaps the fire brigade (you never know), someone is going down for this shit ?
c) Put on a dirty little show for whoever owns the camera, who knows you might get a raise ?
