I don't know if anybody in here watches Who's Line is it Anyway?, after all it's only re-runs now, but I do and I love the Irish Drinking Song segment.

The way this can work is I will state a topic and proceed to start the "song". Then someone else will write the next line. This goes on for four verses of eight lines each, so thirty-two lines, and every other line rhymes (ABCB style). Whoever ends the song picks the next topic and starts it over.

Topic: Plastic Surgery

"I went to the doctor,

So I take it you've never heard an Irish (drinking) song then? Many Irish traditional songs use the 'Diddley' fill in bits, just listen to the Dubliners singing traditional stuff.

Pah!

I know that, Aga, but it kind of interrupted the flow of the song. It could have waited 'til we were at the end of a verse.

VG?! What's wrong with OT? If you think it needs to be moved to the VG, then go ahead. It needs more attention.

(IMHO, this should be moved to OT. [My reasoning is that VG games often have a winner, and this games does not.] Thanks for reactivating the WLIIA games, Jedo!)
