A Paraprosdokian sentence is known as a figure of speech where the last part of the sentence or phrase has a surprising or unexpected ending. The last part of the sentence in this game should be as humorous ROFL! or dramatic Drama Queen as possible.

LittleTree will post the first part of a sentence and your entry will end it.

Please click REPLY for your entry instead of posting a new comment. It keeps the board in order and ensures not missing your post for the poll. One entry per contest.

If an entry should be repeated, the first entry will be used. IF, however, you decide you'd like to enter a different ending, go ahead and post it but let LittleTree know on the board with your reply and it will be used. High five

Winners, by vote, will receive 1 Goldero and a random Para token. A special bonus token will be offered as directed by the host.
