You know, I hate this game. I hated it when it was a tv show, Richard Dawson? (Gawd. I looked it up and I *did* remember it correctly. Why, o, why am I wasting brain cells remembering the name of a host of a game show that I hate?)

The whole premise of the show, think like a sheep and be quick about it; the better sheep you are, the less original, the less creative, the less intelligent you are the more you will be rewarded--offended me. People were being encouraged to be stupid. This was alarming to me and I think it's a direct precursor to lots of other shit tv that carried on even to today, often to levels of painful wincing caricature. Jerry Springer comes to mind. (Yes, I know that's not a game show. The people on both shows all battle to be "The Stupidest!") I am embarrassed for all of them. Are they all too stupid to feel shame? Apparently. [/rant]

Ok. I feel better.

I like games too, so here's my two cents worth:

Name an enemy of Batman - The Penguin
Name something that fastens clothes together - Safety Pin
Name something that couples exchange at a wedding - Vows
Name the loudest animal in a zoo - Lion
Name something you wish people wouldn't do in your car - Grab the wheel
Name a city where something is going on 24 hours a day - Vegas, baby
Name something associated with the country Wales - The Welsh
Name a number you might have to memorise - phone number
Name something you might put out for the birds - bird bath
Name an animal beginning with the letter T - tiger

Because I liked ZenGum's idea so much, I wanted to copy it. Here are my comedy answers.

Name an enemy of Batman - Everybody! Who, besides Robin and Alfred are even on his side?
Name something that fastens clothes together - bodily fluids
Name something that couples exchange at a wedding - other bodily fluids
Name the loudest animal in a zoo - that screaming toddler lashed into his stroller
Name something you wish people wouldn't do in your car - ride free; gas, grass or ass
Name a city where something is going on 24 hours a day - the city that never sleeps
Name something associated with the country Wales - an generalized sense of inadequacy compared to city whales
Name a number you might have to memorise - the one you keep forgetting
Name something you might put out for the birds - cynaide and strychnine
Name an animal beginning with the letter T - you don't have animals with tea, it is a strictly vegetarian affair, so I choose Toast.

I've been to Wales, and it's a really nice place. I have no idea why this popped into my head, but "sheep fucking" was the first thing to register. That's supposed to be Scotland though, isn't it? You shouldn't be asking Americans these things.
No, no, no, NO, NO! That's the WELSH, for sure!

It's also used for Yorkshire. Basically anywhere traditionally associated with sheep and/or wool textiles.

Hang on a minute. The green hornet was spidermans enemy wasn't he?

I've got all my evil rivals mixed up.

I guess I'd lose family feud if I gave that answer.
