Party Talk

I was reading this honest, raw blog today and, respecting the request of the blogger of note, I posted a comment that I rather enjoyed. So, I'm swiping it and, with a few minor edits, posting it here. Think of it as the Holiday Party Meme!

****

You’re at a holiday dinner party. On the right of you sits Mel Brooks, on the left Dawn French. Who makes you snort and spew wine through your nose first, leaving you in total gales of laughter and what is it they said to finally push you over the edge into utter hilarity?

Or maybe this: It’s the time of year where your neighbors are stringing up lights on their houses and temporarily hanging holly in their hearts. Your town council mandates that all homes must hang no less than 500, but no more than 500,000 lights per house. You think this is a stupid idea, but you have to comply or face steep fines. You decide to use your light allotment to send a message. What do you write on the rooftop in lights?

Or, you’ve been asked to describe the last party or large gathering you went to but you’re only allowed to write in alliteration. What is the result?

And now, before I go, I'm issuing one final off-topic idea: you have a camera in your hands and you can take two pictures. How would you capture these two words: hold and value?
