let's go to the carnival!
![]() |
the carnival meme |
WHAT TO DO: 1. Post with your character! 2. Pick a scenario and reply to people! 3. Have fun and try not to get sick on the roller coaster! OPTIONS: 1. Games: From classic ring toss to the shooting gallery, here's your chance to win a prize for yourself or for that special someone. Some say the games at a carnival are rigged, but maybe, just maybe, you'll get lucky! 2. Food and Drink: The sweet smell of funnel cake and the familiar briny aroma of popcorn draw you over to the food and drink tent. There's cotton candy, candied nuts, and cheep booze, all here for your enjoyment. 3. Classic Rides: The carousel, the ferris wheel. All carnivals need these classic rides for kids and adults who aren't looking for the excitement of the faster-paced rides. Snuggle close to your partner and see if you can see your house from the top of the wheel. 4. Something More Exciting: This is for thrill-seekers. Here you'll find the Tilt-a-Whirl, the Gravitron, the Screamin' Swing--all the rides designed to make you lose your lunch. Hope you didn't have too much cotton candy! 5. Freakshow: Do they really have a bearded lady in that tent? It's time to find out. Buy a ticket and see the greatest oddities the world has to offer. 6. Tunnel of Love: Or perhaps tunnel of mild boredom. The red-tinted lights and quasi-romantic music are meant to make this ride a great makeout spot, if the chemistry is there. 7. Hall of Mirrors: You and your partner entered, thinking it would be easy to get out again, but dead ends abound in this wacky mirror-maze, and each mirror seems to show a more and more distorted image of each of you. 8. Fortune Teller: Whether one of the creepy machines or the even creepier women dressed up in a culturally insensitive costume, you cross someone's palms with silver and get your future told. Will it be happiness forever with your partner, or will ill tidings be bound your way? (Feel free to use this online tarot spread for extra fun!) 9. Wildcard: Any situation of your choosing happens in a carnival today! Go with the flow. |

"Well, at least it's not all awful things for us to want to yell at," she said. She reached into her utility belt and leaned up to the nearest wall - and with the piece of chalk she'd grabbed, she made a quick t-chart.
Awful | Cute
=============
With, for the moment, two under awful, one under cute.

“Here’s hoping there’s more cute coming up...”
no subject
"I think this means we have to bet, and I have to be the jerk who bets against cute, because someone got there first."

"Sorry, winner goes the spoils!" Marie replied. "Or something like that. I'm sure I got it wrong."
no subject
"Fine, winner buys food later. I am thinking a truly indulgent burger and fries. Oh, and it's 'to the winner goes the spoils,' but you were pretty close!"

At that, the next couple came around, the two in the boat looking like they had the worst fight ever.
“Whoof, tension you can cut with a knife.”
no subject
"Geez, Bob, these two look like they're in Round Nine of a ten round fight. Whaddaya think is goin' on down there, Bob?"
Naturally 'pushing' the microphone towards Marie.
no subject
“Seems like the guy caught the eye of someone else and the lady did not like it at all!”

She mimicked a camera zooming in to catch the action.

"Oooh, and I think he's down!" Marie replied.
no subject
"Down and out," she replied, dropping the voice. "Somebody looked the wrong way at one of her friends."
