I can't believe you said that!

in The Circus
A game for three players.
Player 1 posts a line of innocuous small talk.
Player 2 posts a logical next line, also small talk.
Player 3 posts an utterly outlandish reply, and starts a new game.
Example:
Player 1: I like a nice gin and tonic now and then.
Player 2: I prefer a vodka and tonic.
Player 3: It's rubbing alcohol and grape juice for me.
(new game)
There's nothing like a quiet evening at home.
When you post, repeat the lines from the previous post so (1) we'll know how far along in the game we are, and (2) we have continuity of thought.
Let us begin.
Toast is best with marmalade.

I do like your new sweater.

Romantic movies always make me cry.
Crying is good for you; that's why I watch tragedies too.

When your love life is as tragic as mine, who needs a movie?
You can't beat relaxing in front of a good roaring fire on a cold evening.

Care to start a new one?
Bugger, sorry, too keen! NO, that's the excuse, not the start line!

That comedian always has such clean and wholesome humour.
He never uses smut or naughty words.
He abuses a ventriloquists dummy.
Have you heard the cats screeching on the roof at night?
Is that what that blood-curdling noise is!

No, that's the biker-gang next door torturing their enemies, but that happens every night, so I don't really notice it anymore.
Finally, a job where I can use my greatest talents!

What a shame, I've finished the ice cream.
It was hokey pokey - my favorite.
I like a bit of right-foot in my ice cream. With a nice chianti.
Debate on the Ship is always so polite and civil.
It feels almost unchristian to disagree with anybody.
