It's fun to look at the revivals and to relive some of those fun games of the past, but I saw this game being played over at IMDB and it occurred to me it could work here because it's easy and fun and you can be either silly or serious and you can do as many or as few as you want. Let's just see how close we can get to 500...
I'll start.
500 -- Dog ashes come in little cake boxes.
499 -- It is appropriate to hang up on one's husband if he has to gall to suggest taking pottery classes together.

Oh I love it , I love it...a new game...Good ol Shmeep, she always comes through......let me see if i got this right. I guess we don't drag the previous ones with us...or do we? 498--Dogs should be sent from the room when things start to heat up. 497---"It's Fashion Week" is as good an excuse as "I have a headache". 496--- All apartment house doors should have raised numbers.

If we are going for 500, I suggest we keep them so it will be less likely for duplicates. I love the screencaps, though....so how about we keep the "lessons" but drop the screencaps as we add? Anyone???

It's been so long since we did one of these lists...do we need to keep who added what?

I had that book in my classroom ..by Robert Fulghum All I Need to Know I learned in Kindergarten, and chuckled at how it does apply here. There's more that apply but maybe another time.491--Share (" We share in this squad Dunbar") 490--Play Fair 489--Don't hit people 488--Say You're sorry when you hurt someone. 487--When you go out into the world watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together.

I have a feeling we will get some repeats--when we get down to 200 and 100, who will want to read the whole list?

I personally have no interest in repeating the list in every post. That quickly grows tedious and makes people less willing to play. At least that's how I feel. I'm generally posting from my phone and even reading through it all over and over is a chore. Nobody will carefully pick through the list each time no matter how it's presented and I think repeats are inevitable no matter what. That's okay. I plan to just post ad it occurs to me and I'll read back through the thread as far as I can first. If anyone feels motivated enough to compile the list every twenty posts or so, I'm sure there's some karma in it for you, but it doesn't really matter. That said...
