GAME: Wrestling Scenes from a Hat - Page 9

All right, if you've ever watched that show Whose Line Is It Anyway? you've probably seen a segment called Scenes from a Hat, where the host pulls out a "scene" written on a sheet of paper from a hat and has the actors act it out.

Basically, I'll be pulling out "scenes" for you guys to act out in a humorous manner. The object of the game is to come up with the funniest response. You might remember a few months ago, someone started a thread called "Things you shouldn't say to Triple H," and everyone gave a lot of great responses of their own. This is pretty similar, except that every few days, I'll come up with a new scene.

It's pretty simple, but I do have a few notes. Because this is just a message board you can't really act out something, so responses will have to use a bit of roleplay. It's sort of like captioning or even that TPWW Hardcore Championship thread, where you "act something out" through writing. I say this because sometimes, I'll give a scene, and a reply may just be a simple one or two word statement. I'd like to encourage people to act out stuff instead. For example, if the scene is "Inappropriate moments to do so-and-so," instead of just saying something like "after bed" or "in the morning," act out that scene. If the scene asks for a movie name, maybe give a bit of a trailer that might air for that movie.

Just a few rules:
- ONE SCENE PER REPLY. You can only post one "response" at a time. Don't list a whole bunch of them in one post. This is just to allow others who might have a similar idea to get their chance to post.
- NO DOUBLE POSTING. Obviously, since you can only post one answer at a time, some might feel tempted to post six replies in six posts. That's kinda cheap, so I'd like to discourage that. If you have two or more good ones, either wait for someone else to post one of theirs or wait five minutes.
NOTE: Technically, I can't prevent people from multi-posting, so if you did double or triple post, it'd be okay... but try not to make a habit of it. Like, once a week or month is the max.
- The only double posting allowed is to respond to another person's scene in one post and then give your own example in another. Obviously, if you think someone posted a classic respond, by all means show your approval with a

or

or whanot. That way, we can have sort of like a live audience thing.
- Please try to keep your scenes short. Few people like to read whole biographies for these things.

- Once a round is over, no more replies can be made for it. Make your replies only for the most recent scene suggestion.

Anyway, sorry about all those rules, but I'd like to be clear about the game. It's really pretty simple and has the potential for gold (El Santo, Rock Bottom, Loopydate, Kane Knight, Nowhere Man, I'm looking at you guys) from everyone, really. I just want to make sure it doesn't get screwed up.

Anyway, first scene coming up...
