View Full Version : Word anti-association

Another silly thread game. I'm sure you know how "Word association" goes.

This works like pretty much as the "anti" to that, like this:

Person A posts a word.
Person B tries to find a word that has little/no association to the previous word.
Person C disproves the previous 2 words' anti-association (proves an association).
Person C tries to find a word that has little/no association to the previous word.
(Person D disproves, posts a new anti-association.)
(Person E disproves, posts a new anti-association.)
(Person etc., etc.)

Here's another way of looking at it.

Person A:
":)" (new word)

Person B:
":-D" ("anti-associated" word)

Person C:
":)" = ":D" (gives proof of word association)
":o" (new word)

Person B, or A or D, etc.:
":o" = ":D" (gives proof of word association)
":?:" (new word)

etc.


Okay... here's the first word:

(just to give an idea on 'anti-association' and countering it...)

computer + bubblegum = hello kitty bubblegum girlfriends computer game.

(...and a possible "anti-assocation" word to bubblegum...)

Sharp object + saltwater = gets rid of dried bubblegum stuck to jeans =D

Therefore new word is time-space continuum

Th3Professor
July 4th, 2008, 05:00 PM
saltwater is present within our space-time continuum. :p lol... uhm... an anti-assoc for space-time continuum?! lol .... hmmm... that's tricky, since everything and anything is part of it...

"nothing"

geek_Man
July 4th, 2008, 05:07 PM
Well...... without anti-matter (nothing), you wouldn't have anything to mix with matter to break the time-space continuum... kind of a stretch...

Matter

Th3Professor
July 4th, 2008, 05:18 PM
"it doesn't matter" = "it's nothing" (basically) :D

new word...

Something not related to spaghetti: Llamas

Th3Professor
July 11th, 2008, 04:03 AM
nice one with the socks :) heheh.

Okay, well this is the closest I can find associating spaghetti and llamas (other than having llama-spaghetti as actual food)...

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=285086555

Somebody has that name "Spaghetti Llama". lol

Oh wait... there actually is a recipe for "llama spaghetti"! (online)

Yuck!

That was certainly a tricky one! I'd be curious to hear of more associations between those two.

okay, an anti-assoc. word with llama, or llamas:

sunglasses

do we have any takers?

Anti to sunglasses = Lower intestine

Anti to sunglasses = Lower intestine

Someone with an edible complex will experience that first-hand. Eat the sunglasses and they pass through the intestines. <ouch>

anti to (lower intestine, or just...) intestine =

A

(as in the music note/pitch)

misterhead
July 16th, 2008, 06:35 PM
I do believe I have passed gas out of my lower intestine to produce an A (as in the note/pitch) ...

...or was it an A flat?

anyhow.

opposite A (as in note/Pitch) = Stapler

Th3Professor
July 18th, 2008, 02:42 PM
Either combine enough staplers that, when simultaneously stapling them, the result of the "k-ch, k" produces a percussive pitch of "A", or, simply use one stapler that happens to be a model, size, etc. that when stapling, alone, produces the pitch "A", and you have an association between the note/pitch "A" and "stapler". :D (Pitch does exist within "non-pitched" percussion.)

Anti-assoc. to stapler:

noodle

misterhead
July 18th, 2008, 03:52 PM
You know you're a stupid stapler user when...

You believe you can re-seal your half used box of noodles, with a stapler.

...here it is again:

anti to s'mores:

carburetor

misterhead
August 15th, 2008, 02:16 PM
A carburetor breathes in air and consumes gasoline to make a car go, and My mouth breathes in air and consumes smores to make me go.

Also... I'm pretty sure you can make smores on the intake manifold, right in front of the carburetor.

carburetor anti to - tourette syndrome

ahhh ya got it wrong :(

the anti that you provide should go to the most recent word. :)

...like...

1. s'mores.
2. anti to s'mores = carburetor.
3. anti disproven; aka a word assoc is proven between s'mores and carburetor by sayin' how they are associated with each other.
4. anti to carburetor = tourettes.
5. anti disproven; aka a word assoc is proven between carburetor and tourettes by sayin' how they are associated with each other.
6. anti to tourettes = (insert word here).

WTF?! lol

Either I'm having brain-farts and not processing correlations between these otherwise anti-associative words or maybe there aren't any? Naaaa... there's gotta be an association here.

A Harddrive consist of platters that contain bits [of information] whereas Nebulae consist clouds that countain of bits [of matter and/or dust (which is matter)]. Hencforthwithworthwhile, Harddrives and Nebulae are 2nd cousins. Wow! You need to spend more time on the internet my friend. You're grey matter is truning into...jello (would that make me a zombie?)

tick and coffee: coffee is commonly prepared with coffee machines. These machines use a complex, and possibly proprietary system, which dosnt matter to the subject. At any rate, at a set time and/or temperature, the coffee machine ticks, and either ends with said tick or chimes. This is how ticks and coffee can be associated.

Here's another way of looking at it.

Person A:
":smile:" (new word)

Person B:
":grin:" ("anti-associated" word)

Person C:
":smile:" = ":grin:" (gives proof of word association)
":eek:" (new word)

Person B, or A or D, etc.:
":eek:" = ":grin:" (gives proof of word association)
":?:" (new word)

etc.



(...okay, getting back to this necro-bump...) ;p

Coffee & penguin = associated by both consisting of the shade of black.
