Back in the day, in a high school English class, the teacher asked students to get involved in a game. Don’t know if the exercise had a formal name, but the concept was simple.
Finish this sentence: Have you ever seen …
The trick was to combine a noun with a verb, to give the query a quirky result.
Like, have you ever seen a horse fly?
So I’ll resurrect the game, with hope that you might join in to share your brainstorming skills.
I’ll do a few more examples to get the momentum going.
Have you ever seen…
…an ocean wave?
…a snail pace?
…a dog pound?
…a lamp chop?
…a running brook?
…a fox trot?
…a fish fry?
…an ocean wave?
…a mouse trap?
OK, your turn now. …
Have you ever seen…
…a water fall?
…a sushi roll?
…a California roll?
…a coco puff
…a shrimp stir-fry
…a Tennessee Waltz (oldies song title)
