"Take the DeadWife Challenge!"
Posted by Estee on 04-15-09 at 07:47 AM
Unlike most of the challenges where we try to reach below the unreachable, this one is a two-player (or more) game. The first person names a song that could not possibly be about someone's dead wife. The next one-to-? comes along and explains why this is actually a song about someone's dead wife.

Here's some examples from last night's Bar session to give you the idea.

Song: She-Bop
Death: Because she used to bop. And now she can`t bop any more. Because she`s dead.

Song: The Streak
Death: She had a very long streak of `days spent alive`. That streak was broken and they can`t start a new one. Because she`s dead.

Song: Staying Alive
Death: No softballs, please.

Song: My Wife And My Dead Wife
Death: All of us after Danny performs it next week.

You've got the idea -- so play the game! Put your song in the title of your post, and see if you're the one who makes the undeathable choice -- or manages to wreck someone else's.

The DeadWife Challenge. Because it had to be done. And because we're a bashing board, @#$% it.

Yes, this does mean that at the very least, I think someone's telling him to do this every possible week.

She heard it was raining so she went out with an umbrella. Men came crashing down from the heavens and her umbrella impaled her.

Oh, that one's easy. She used to be a virgin. Then she had sex. And she was struck by lightning, because having sex is wrong. Now she's dead.

As it turns out, some churches still have very harsh laws on who you're allowed to date. Very harsh laws.

You wear black to a funeral so as not to clash with the white shroud on the dead wife.

More people die from lightning, tornadoes, and drowning in the summer than at any other time of the year.

Obvi, she was standing next to her hubby on the golf course when the lightning struck his glasses. The shards of glasses penetrated her earlobe, and she bled out.

"RE: MacArthur Park"
Posted by geekboy on 04-15-09 at 03:01 PM
She can no longer make cakes, because she left the cake out in the rain, but it was raining men, like Glow said above. ^^ Umbrella, impaling her, now she is dead. You get it.

Bonus points for 'Two Degrees Of DeadWife Challenge'?

Can I use the artist to break this one?

Alternately...
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well

The doctor took her picture alright, and the diagnosis was not good.
