Word Morph

[krisma5]

You can do one of four things to the word:

1. Add a Letter
2. Remove a Letter
3. Change a Letter
4. Word Morph!***

For example, if the starting word was

Box
You could change a letter: bot
You could change a letter: bit
You could then add a letter: bits
You could then change a letter: bite

Do not rearrange the order of the letters

***
If you can rearrange the letters, not adding or taking a letter away, and use all the letters, then you have a Word Morph!

***

I'll start off with: tell

[Zap]

tell = teal

[Trapper]

teal = steal

[Strong]

steal = stale

(that must be a word morph, how many points do I get? And how many points do I need before the striper turns up?)

[Trapper]

(Isn't it ironic that you picked "late", since you were a bit late posting. Loss of 1 billion points)

[Strong]

The irony made me edit my late post :lol:

Knowing my luck the stripper would have been Elizabeth Taylor, so I don't feel so bad about the penalty!

[Trapper]

Ok, I'll give you half your points back.

Lets make it harder.

Stale = Style

[Strong]

Style = Stile

[Trapper]

stile = tile

[Strong]

Tile = bile

[Trapper]

bile = mile

[Strong]

mile = smile

[Trapper]

smile = smiled

[Strong]

smiled = slimed

[Trapper]

*checks rules... doesn't see rearrange letters... I will let it slide with a 19 million point penalty*

slimed = sliced

[krisma5]

sliced = slided

[Strong]

Now you take that 19 million point penalty back! I'm still working on the 500 Million for crying out loud! :sqeek:

[Trapper]

slided = glided (slided? = slid? )

[fastreplies]

glided > guided

[Muddy]

^ hmmm?

[Strong]

I must be drunk on strawberries, scrap that, back to:

Felts

[ewomack]

felts = melts

[Muddy]

melts=smelt

^ What do we get when we actually do a morph? Do we keep track or is this all absolutely pointless?

[Strong]

smelt = spelt

Oh the irony! :sqrofl:

[Muddy]

spelt=slept

I'm racking up the morphs here...is my life still meaningless?

[Strong]

slept = sleet

Life has no meaning, it just is, as you are.

Or

You are the embodiment of thought in the Universe. If that isn't enough meaning for ya I don't know what could be.

[Ferre]

sleet = weed

:sqlaugh:

[Muddy]

LOL! Nice try!

[krisma5]

sleet = fleet

ps, mud, it's only a morph if you can switch all the letters around without changing them to others and it still makes a word. understand?

[Strong]

fleet = flee

[krisma5]

flee = free

[Strong]

free = bree

[krisma5]

bree = tree

[krisma5]

I don't what the heck bree is though.

I'm racking up the morphs here...is my life still meaningless?

This wouldn't be one cause the s and e and t are still in the same place. Get it?:sqwink:

[Muddy]

*NOW* I get it. I didn't understand that all the letters had to be in new spots. OK...that's all right. Make it as tough as you want. See if I care. Let the morphing begin! Watch and learn. lol!

[Muddy]

weeds=swede

Nuther morph.


That is deffinitly one! :sqbiggrin:

[Muddy]

Kids these days eh? It's all about movies...wouldn't know a book if it bit 'em in the ass.

[Strong]

Maybe if they were spanked using a good thick book they might sit down and read it, if for no other reason than to stop you from smacking them with it! :sqwink:

[krisma5]

Kids these days eh? It's all about movies...wouldn't know a book if it bit 'em in the ass.

HEY! JFYI I am reading one now that has over 1800 pages and am already half way through, only had it for three days. Don't tell ME I don't read books!!!:sqmad:

As I so disappointingly learned, the above is not a morph because there are still letters in their original positions in the word. They all have to have a new position. I know...I hate it too! lol!

[julien_simon]

tired=fired

[Strong]

As I so disappointingly learned, the above is not a morph because there are still letters in their original positions in the word. They all have to have a new position. I know...I hate it too! lol!

Doh! I thought it was OK to move just one letter. But you are right, apparently it is not!

Sorry Julien!

[ewomack]

I haven't been following the rules, either... whoa... do I actually have to read the manual before I use the large hadron collider?!? AUGH!!!

[julien_simon]

LOL - it seems that the game you play in your mind will never be over.

[ewomack]

That explains a lot... thank you... now I feel like going out and doing something meaningful with my life... like snowblowing...

[julien_simon]

Leafblowers is truly one of the most pointless invention ever. Everybody use them in Vancouver, blowing the leaves into the neighbour's yard, weaiting for them to blow them back, with their leaves on top of that.
It's like an endless cycle that is pitiful to watch.

[Strong]

OK, who killed the game? :sqlaugh:

[Atom]

This is not, I repeat, not, a fun game to observe. Just my opinion.

[Muddy]

No forum games are really...I'm never sure how I get sucked into them. I do succeed in staying away from some, but others will get me...usually if they deal with words like this one or the "4 words at a time" ongoing story.

[Atom]

I suppose it's because games have rules. Rules are so boring and claustrophobic, don't you think?

[Strong]

You can tell what a bunch of anarchist we are, it seems no one wants to play by the rules Krisma set at the start.

[julien_simon]

your cans toll wheat at bench off anarchists wet area, lit seem nor none want top lay bye then rule ramsik let ate then tart

[Strong]

Dude, how many points did you get with that?

[julien_simon]

points?

oh I see, word morph point.

I didn 't know we kept score :D

[Strong]

I think Ed does the scoring.

[julien_simon]

Yeah - that would makes sense.

I can't wait to see the score sheet.

[Strong]

Well I don't think what he covers his bed with has anything to do with it! Come on dude, stay on topic.

[julien_simon]

Well, with my french accent, you would hear:
score shit? :sqwink:

[Strong]

So tell me Julien, do the girls really fall for guys "wi zee Fren ch ac xent and deh sexi tork"?

[julien_simon]

they don't fall for it like crazy but it sure helps. It's an ice breaker more than anything, some easy laughs and giggles at the beginning of the conversation.

in French we say: "Femme qui rit a moitie dans ton lit"
word for word:"Woman who you make laugh is half ready to go to bed with you"


but again, French women are easy.

[Strong]

And a few classic French ice breaking lines would be?

[julien_simon]

"Don't I know you from somewhere?"

*bump* "Oh I'm sorry, let me buy you a drink to make up for my clumsiness.

I'm not really sure. I usually don't approach women I don't know. I don't have the balls for it.

I'd rather stand close by, makes witty comments and fun jokes and let her see me.

but that never works.

[Strong]

Women are a mystery :sqfrown:

[Muddy]

in French we say: "Femme qui rit a moitie dans ton lit"
word for word:"Woman who you make laugh is half ready to go to bed with you"

Women laugh at me all the time. Usually from a safe distance.

[Muddy]

And a few classic French ice breaking lines would be?

For Serge Gainsbourg it was, "I want to fuck her."

[julien_simon]

For Serge Gainsbourg it was, "I want to fuck her."

yes, what a classy man.

[ewomack]

If everyone were like him, the cigarette companies would remain profitable...

[Strong]

If every woman were like him, I'd take up smoking.

[iowadawg]

I am married, so I can not comment on all this sex.

[Muddy]

Every one of us in this thread are married. What sex?

[iowadawg]

Any kind of sex.
up, down, sideways, in the kitchen, on the tree swing.

[julien_simon]

Any kind of sex.
up, down, sideways, in the kitchen, on the tree swing.

you mean the second Saturday sex?

[iowadawg]

That day, and any other day.
Or night.

But always, have to clear it with the wife first.

[ewomack]

Sex is a beautiful thing between two people.

Between five it's extraordinary...

[Muddy]

And between five and six only gives you an hour.

[iowadawg]

Best to take the 7pm to 9pm slot.

More hot action at that time.

[Strong]

I am married, so I can not comment on all this sex.


Any kind of sex.
up, down, sideways, in the kitchen, on the tree swing.

There is your problem dude! You're just not doing it properly. Practice in and out, in and out. Say it with me, ...

[julien_simon]

keep the sex dirty and the fights clean.

[Strong]

Good marital advice!

[julien_simon]

That will be $400 please.

Call my secretary for your next appointment.

[Strong]

That's a lot to pay! Is your hairdresser any cheaper?

[iowadawg]

Four hundred bucks will buy you a lot of food, drink and sex.

[julien_simon]

That's a lot to pay! Is your hairdresser any cheaper?
My wife cuts my hair.

I guess she doesn't want me to look good. She does a good job at it.

[iowadawg]

Good martial advice!

That is what you meant to type out.

[Strong]

I see someone is still playing this game! LOL

[ewomack]

This game makes me cramp up like a hyena...

[Muddy]

It makes me cramp up like a cramp.
