Change a word, ruin a quote
March 25, 2015 at 1:27 pm
Here's a game I've been following on twitter. The rules are complicated, but in summary, you have to completely change the meaning of a famous quote by altering just one word. viz:
If at first you don't succeed, try, try a gin.
Use the gun, Luke.
Give me liberty or give me meth!
THIS! IS! PRADA!
Your go.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Monty Python already gave us my favorite:

I wondered lonely as a crowd.
Of all the gin joints in all the world you had to walk into this wall.

Too true I'm afraid.

One does not simply walk into a door.
