I am in

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

I am in

I am in shock (no, this isn't an old thread; I just like to start all the threads I make with "I am in shock") at how many random test/quiz thingys there are on CaC, and, as the creator of "RANDOM TEST/QUIZ THINGY #1!!!!" from a loooooong time ago (haha, the first one!), I believe I shall make another, and I shall call it "RANDOM TEST/QUIZ THINGY #11", because I think I stopped at nine or ten.  Maybe. :)

Nearly all of the current test/quiz thingys seem to be the "write your favorite [animal/veggie/etc.] here", so I'm going back to my favorite.  For those of you who don't know it, it's basically Scattergories (BEST GAME EVER!!!), and for those of you who don't know what that game is, just take the first letter of your name (K for me, because my [fake] name's Kenzie) and try to think of a word for each catagory I list (if it were "animal", I could say "Koala", because it starts with K).  If you don't understand, you can ask me, or just look at my answers or somebuggy else's. :):) Also, try not to give the same answer for different catagories, and instead think of different words each time!  And, you're only allowed to use one of my example answers per round, 'kay?

AND, if your name starts with J, K, O, Q, U, V, X, Y, Z, or any difficult letter, use your middle name, or your last name (but don't tell us what it is completely!!!).  I'm using K, because I'm up for the challenge. :):)

YAY!!!!! Sorry, it's just that the other quizzes were taking up the entire CaC, and I'd done so many that I'd gotten bored of them, but Scattegories is awesome! In fact, I think I'll do my real name (K), my pseudonym (I), my middle name (N), my last name (B), and possibly even the names of some of my family members and pets all at once :D! However, the Admin don't post exceptionally long comments, so I'll make several. I'll use K first.

1: Kalli the cashier!

2: Kapok brown

3: Katie from Kira-kira

4: Kangaroo

5: Um... Is there a Kapok fruit? Kenzie did kiwi...

6: Kevin the lifeguard!

7: Um... Kettlingor Times? That's made up, by the way.

8: Kiwi!

9: Um... Katie's country?

10: King Henry I! (If there was an 8th, there would have been a 1st)
