The new rules of Pictionary

There's this another cartoon I know. Actually she is very well known cartoon. Most of us think she deserves a title. Like the Queen of nonsense or similar such terminology. So I'll run a vote at it and we can vote for a title. Suggestions are most welcome. So...This cartoon and us were playing pictionary and then the DC. She taught us a whole new angle to look at it. Some of the things we learnt are:
1: Never ever take anything at it's face value. There's always a complicated way to guess things.
2: Always mistake a noun for a verb. If not anything, at least it'll make the game more interesting.
3: Always draw something that looks like something else. If you draw what you are supposed to draw, then people will guess it right.
4: If they cannot guess action words, do the action by wiggling you bottom or make faces. It always helps your team guess right and win.
5: Never think in linear direction while guessing, always think out of the box, and if possible, out of the galaxy.
6: Even if you have guessed the word halfway, dont let it out, make it difficult by guessing non related terms. This is purely to challenge your intelligence and your team's patience. What's a game without some good verbal sparring.
7: While playing DC, always make signs that have .00001% of being guessed. That's the only way your team will learn.

If you follow these rules, it’s almost guaranteed that your team will never win, but if not anything; you team will certainly be completely entertaining.

The poll is on the top right. DO vote.

A day in the life of a cartoon

Well..Everyone keeps calling this friend of mine a cartoon...She is very upset..she says rightfully so. She says there is a reason she has become this way. The people she meets everyday and talks to and spends time with have forced her to become like this. It is survival the cartoon says..in the big bad world of mad people, this is how she survives. She illustrates an example of a typical day in her life and beseeches us to understand her predicament.

The morning:
Cartoon wakes up to * tring tring* ,
Cartoon :'Hello'
phone person: 'hello..hello..helooooooo...helloooooooooooo'
Cartoon: I can hear you, please dont scream
phone person: 'ok....listen..I will not be able to pick you up today for the car pool, there is a costume fitting and I have to upgrade my superhero outfit. I am sorry, you need to get to work on your own. bye.' *click*
Cartoon: 'whaaa....????' ok.

At work:
Cartoon: Hey! morning!..
Cake man: oooohhh!! nice outfit..suits you. The colour brings out your eyes. Where did you get it from?
Cartoon: *completely bedazzled*. Oh! thanks. I got it from the same place I got others.
Cake man: explaining a party at home. 'We had like the best gold and silver'. I wore some swanky stuff. My mum fed me, she looked gor-ge-ous. Everyone was like..'man! you look good, have some cake'. I had quite a few. I photographed them. Look, I have even put markers so that you differentitate between sunrise marshmellow and dark knight cakes. oooooohh..wait wait,...i even got presents..i put them all on a table too. Look..cartoon..look..did you see my beuuuaaatiful shirt?'
Cartoon: *numbed in the brain* eh? nice they are. I'll get back to work.

Evening at home
Cartoon:'Ok, mum, i'm going to the neighbor's house'
Mum: 'Ok, dont fall off the terrace this time'
Dad: 'And also the staircase'. Do not think it's a slide. ok?'
Cartoon:*thinking why she'll do that* and promptly rolling down the neighbor staircase and hurting a lot of useful body parts.


The above example clearly demonstrates that cartoon is the sanest in the all the conversations and should not be judged by the discussions she gets invariably drawn into. So she's not a cartoon but a normal unanimated human.

P.S. The above incidents are not a part of any dream and concern real conversations with real people.
