Remember that game you used to play in the car, picnic, or something. You know, “I’m going to a picnic and I’m bringing…” and you’s say everything everyone else as said, and add your own thing, but you had to go in alphabetical order?

Yup, you guessed. I am so bored right now I am willing to do anything for some entertainment. Mind you, I did say it was lame, so please, don’t harrass me about that.

Now, we work on the honor system. Since in the real game you can’t ask what someone said, you have to remember, only read the thread once, and then post, adding your own item.  
And don’t cheat by cutting and pasting, please. We’re all adults, and I believe we can trust each other.

By the way, words like ‘a’ and ‘the’ can be inserted anywhere, but don’t count as starting letters if you’re at ‘a’ or ‘t’.

Now…I’m going on a picnic and I’m bringing…
