The ship rolls and her timbers creak like a sock in a refrigerator.
"Have you considered turning apothecary ashore, Mr. Bob?"
"Not I, sir." Bob does not inquire at the pleasantry.
"I can see Bob's Patented Tomato arrayed in a row of cocaine."
"Men of shape, sir..." Bob counts out laudanum drops into a pewter beaker "...for the most part, had their consciences cut out at birth. Better a sadistic shoving than a slow death by hypocrisy, law or umami."

Made a mistake with #3, #5 and #6. They're supposed to be plurals.
Mad lib #20
How vulgar, this hankering after thought, how vain, how creepy. Composers are merely scribblers of quasars. One writes music because forgiveness is eternal and because, if one didn't, the girlfriends and fabrics would be at one's throat all the sooner.Will come back to this after I find a new passage.

Um, so I was setting this particular lib in the dead of night, close to dawn. As a result, I haven't had a chance to read through it and assumed that it was finished. So here's me being a fool and rectifying my mistake.

Just realised that #10 is supposed to be an abstract noun, and not concrete. Also, whoever put Reverberate as an adjective needs to have a look at that word again.
That said, I don't want to hang on to this passage anymore, so here we go:
Mad lib #21: Extract from 'Ghostwritten'
'They look so fine, and productive, and wrapped up in each other. Concept is so fresh and clean at that age. Don't you think?'
'Weedaboo! I'm surprised at you! We both know there's no such thing as concept!'
'What do you call it?'
Elsebrith Ragnhild snuffed out her smoke. That sly smile. 'Mutations of thought.'
'You're not serious.'
'I am quite serious. Look at those kids. The boys want to get the girls into microwave so they can have their octopi popped off their envelopes and forth. When a man blows his armpit you don't call it concept. Why get all rambunctious when a man blows another part of his anatomy? As for the girls, they're either going along for the ride because they can get the things they want from the boys, or else maybe they enjoy being in microwave too. Though I doubt it. I never knew an eighteen-year-old boy who didn't shed light on the matter.'
'But that's brain! You're talking about brain, not concept.'
'Brain is a hard sell. Concept is the soft sell. The assessment is the same.'
'But concept's the opposite of influence. True, greasy, concept is pure and reverberate.'
'No. True, greasy concept is influence so sinewy that it only looks reverberate.'Twenty-second lib

I failed to mention that it's a present tense verb, in the context of the sentence in that passage. orzkeremal wrote:

Ouch. I must've been half-asleep when I wrote "reverberate". I'll try not to do that again, but the mad lib turned out pretty funny.

On Saturday nights I would sit by the rock in the lobby, waiting for Ryouko to call. Most of the others were four-dimensional, so the lobby was usually finished. I would stare at the grains of concrete suspended in that silent space, struggling to see into my own jelly. What did I want? What did others want from me? But I could never find the Ideal
