Fridge tragic challenge

Look at these craptacular 'Fridge Magic' stickers!The Hoydens found 'em...




What can you do with something like that? I decided to write some found poetry:

Sherbert sparkle lipstick clothes!
Fluffy princess heart!
Sunshine! Music! Butterfly!
Glitter sugar FART!


And that's your challenge, too, if you choose to accept it. Use some of the words from the 'Fridge Magic' stickers above in a short poem, or even a short story. Bonus points will be awarded for the more words you can fit in, or for especially creative or unexpected uses of particular words. Go to it! Show the 'Fridge Magic' stickers the respect they deserve!

    Look for the swimming dinosaur, silly. I'd say the wizard music would be a clue but that's secret.

    Having played the game, I'm now going to go and throw up at the knowledge that such hideously gender prescribed fridge magnets are being manufactured for the use of innocent young children in 2009.

    What if little girls want to shoot bunnies, hey, where is that option?

    What if little boys want to wear glitter hairbands, hey?

  7. lemonade blue
    bunnies glue
    candy lipstick
    swinging love sticks
    sweets car
    scooter stars
    wand wings
    ballet strings

    PS of course bubbles is the only word both genders have in common. What does that say about us as a species? More importantly what does it say about bubbles?

    I'm afraid Nick ... both genders have "chocolate" n common as well.

    But sad to hear that the men have the monopoly on the money. Even though it's probably just Monopoly money anyhow.

  10. Hmmm, I guess this gender doesn't have "reading" in its list...

    Nice catch, Maria

    I've just got an eye for chocolate in general, Nick.

    I was going to say it's just a girl thing but I think fridge magic would say I was wrong.
