If you don't get these, good. You're probably too young

Suggestions?

 

[honestrosewater]

Okay, maybe I should explain how this works. You just pick a verb (or verb phrase) and noun (or noun phrase) and insert them in the appropriate slots. It doesn't need to make sense. See:

Whatever hooks your line and sinker.

If you have trouble thinking of one, just pick two words that start with the same sound.

Whatever catalyzes your catharsis.

C'mon, it's fun.

Whatever robs your cradle.
Whatever threads your needle.
Whatever pops your cork.
Whatever rotates your tires.
Whatever lights your strobe.

 

[sporkstorms]

Whatever whets your whistle.

 

[LeBrad]

Whatever tastes like bacon.

 

[honestrosewater]

Whatever tastes like bacon.

Hm, well I thought it was foolproof...

 

[Math Is Hard]

we used to say, "Whatever slays your dragon".

 

[honestrosewater]

Where's you guy's imaginations?

Whatever grinds your gears.
Whatever boosts your thruster.
Whatever inclines your plane.
Whatever tilts your lance.
Whatever leaps your frog.
Whatever tames your lion.
Whatever stripes your tiger.
Whatever spots your cheetah.
Whatever swings your monkey.

 

[ComputerGeek]

what ever foogles your kiddoodle.

 

[Math Is Hard]

I'm still trying to work out the exact rules. I think that you could
1) Take a single word that could be broken apart as a verb and noun, such as in
"Whatever blows your torch".
or
2) Take an object and reference some desirable action that is done to the object, or some desirable action that happens to the object, such as in
"Whatever flips your pancake".

Am I overcomplicating it?

 

[Math Is Hard]

well, "whatever proofs your fool".

Am I overcomplicating it?

Hah, no, I think that rocks. Those are two techniques I use a lot. Add to (2) any of the object's defining or common actions or properties (turning the properties to verbs). Recasting common phrases also works, e.g.

Whatever cleans your clock.

(2):

Whatever sprouts your seed.
Whatever bobs your buoy.

(1):

Whatever drives your shaft.
Whatever monkeys your wrench.
Whatever scares your crow. (Sorry)

(1) backwards:

Whatever shifts your stick.

Sticking with themes helps with ideas too. Say, food and musical instruments:

Whatever cooks your noodle.
Whatever steams your broccoli.
Whatever scrambles your eggs.
Whatever leavens your loaf.
Whatever rings your bell.
Whatever bangs your cymbals.
Whatever plucks your strings.
Whatever bows your fiddle.
Whatever fingers your flute.
Whatever pipes your organ.

 

[Math Is Hard]

Those are awesome! I was thinking alliteration probably gives quite a bit of oomph if it can be worked in. "Whatever shears your shwarma*" for instance.

*We went to a Greek place for lunch and they had one of those rotisseries for the gyro meat. They shave it off in little slices, thus the inspiration for that phrase.

 

[Orefa]

Well, I'm a bit of a handyman so...

Whatever drives your screw.
Whatever bangs your dowel.
Whatever bolts your nuts.

...am I doing it right?

 

[Moonbear]

Whatever chalks your cuestick.

 

[Cardilac]

Whatever occupies your Landau Levels

 

[JamesU]

what ever floccinaucinihilipilificates your...self...


am I a nerd for being able to spell that?

 

[Orefa]

Whatever supercalifragilistics your expialidocious.

 

[honestrosewater]

Yah, I'm stealing some of those. Okay, these are about to get really stupid.

Whatever stiffens your sails.
Whatever spikes your punch.
Whatever moots your point.

Whatever separates your variables

Nice, but I prefer bondage.

Whatever binds your variables.
Whatever embeds your clause.
Whatever dominates your node.
Whatever assigns your theta-roles to their syntactic positions. (It's sexy, trust me. )
Whatever cliticizes your article.
Whatever heads your compound.
Whatever aspirates your pulmonic-egressive oral stops.

Yeah, I think that's enough.
