Fireworks exploding. Lights out and sitting in the big armchair playing playstation with my best friend, watching the odd display through the conservatories many windows.

And it's only a test for the real thing tomorrow night.

This is all very sweet.

However, I fear you are missing the fundamental and elementary principle of the thread. The task Sleazenation cleverly set us was to respond to the the thread in single words.

As a result, the thread summary does not say: "Witter on using whole and complete sentences about the good things in your life." No indeed. In fact, the thread summary respectfully requests that you: "Describe to me in single words only the good things that come into your head...

Single words obviously therefore being the key issue here.

Single.
Words.

Only.
Solitary.
Single.
Words.

Ah. Thus establishing the difference between this and the "Gives Me A Happy" thread.

Hmm.

I thought he was just quoting Blade Runner, never read it as an actual direction...

Yes, it wasn't really clear to me either, Benny the Ball. I figured Sleazenation would have said something about it himself, to those ahead of me in the thread.

Single words? I used single words, three of them...beside each other. I thought it meant we couldn't use double words, much like good-bye

Or perhaps unmarried, bachelor/ette words that have difficulty with commitment....?

Are the single word statements supposed to be meaningful in themselves, excluding, it would seem, most prepositions or conjuctions?

For those of you who can handle further challenge, maybe we could set them in mnemonic fashion to reveal yet, another single word statement!
