Yes.

Because we’re brilliant, rich, full of fire and spirit. Because what happens doesn’t have to be anything other. Because already done already perfect. Yes, the whirling yes. Sweet of the bittersweet concerto, hello. Because we have less hair and more thought. Because god is in the machine, and god is playful. Yes.

"Categories” or “The Grid Game” is something my family played on car trips or at home. As an adult, I have found it to be a lot of laughs at parties or writing jams.

Sharing our results inspired belly laughs as well as a-ha moments. Then we used the answers we came up with as a wordlist for free writing.

Beezo says, "Relax!" De Jackson, RJ Clarken and Phil Fleischmann all took prizes in rannygazoo round #2. The gem that really stuck with me was RJ's R-entry for "obscure words."
