Wordplay Thursday #162

Wordplay Thursday

Welcome to Wordplay Thursday!  Okay, I may be opening a can of worms with this one, but…

“This election season was uglier than __________.”

Here’s a writing prompt for you. It’s a simple fill-in-the-blank. You can use one word or several. Feel free to get as crazy, genre-appropriate, or as imaginative as you want. The point is to get the creative juices flowing. And it’s a good thing to dig deeper, so don’t stop at the first idea that hits you. Try coming up with at least five things- and try to get IMAGERY in at least one of your plays!

“This election season was uglier than ________.”

I’ll give you an example to get you started:

“This election season was uglier than a frog in a blender.”

  2. “This election season was uglier than __________.”

    …an uninvited kiss

    …a stomach growling out of control, and mold greets you from the last jar in the fridge

    …a Trump whisper landing softly in your innocent ear

    …an orange comb over flying under the radar

  3. maggots on a gut wagon.

    J. Edgar Hoover in a negligee.

    a sickly white…massive beer belly…with a multiple of stretch marks, cellulite, and a very nasty purple like appendix scar going right up the middle…with hundreds…literally hundreds…of real ugly prison tattoos jumping out at you…topped of with a half empty can of Schlitz …percariously resting on it…

    your best friend’s drunken mother… leering in, trying to slip you the tongue at his 16 th birthday…

    than the front end of a ’58 Ford Edesel.

    1. J. Edgar line is hilarious.

      A sickly white…you win ‘most descriptive phrase ever’ award 🙂 very funny!

      1. Hey Joe! Thanks man! Apparently the mafia had photos of Hoover in drag…that’s why supposedly he never publicly acknowledged …or went after them. I saw that beer gut at a biker party…& the guy who worked on the gut to get it where it was …had one gorgeous girl friend!! Go figure huh?

    That thing with the hair growing on my mother’s back.
    My family reunion…..;really, really bad
    Uncle Toby’s toothless grin
    The ointment for my ‘coma se que llama’
    The soft, sticky stuff ,stuck under the sofa cushions.

  5. This election was uglier than my wife is prettier
    Worst I’ve seen in all my years
    Is it safe to take my fingers out of my ears

  6. The election season was uglier than….

    ….a young father trying to change his newborn twins’ diapers.

    ….a long rotting body’s stench the hungry gator found in a putrid trench.

    ….a dark, mournful dirge howling like lone, woe driven ghoul over a fearful procession of dread.

    …the inside of a politician’s heart

    …the face of violence it gave permission to rise

    …grandpaw’s long johns at the end of the winter

    …the haters it incited into action
