(inspired by a weekend with TangoMango and bandmates doing just this...)
Hokay...
you're sat round a campfire. You're barbarians. You're mighty-thewed, and strong. You're somewhat short on vocabulary. Think the campfire bit from Conan The Barbarian, except without the Post-It note-ness of it all... (HMM! Crush your enemies... see them driven before you... hear the lamentation of the women... ah yes! Milk! Must remember milk!)
The idea is to come up with nuggets of Barbarian Wisdom. The kind of thing that would make the other barbarians sat roudn the fire with you raise their drinking (or other types of) horns and say "TRUTH!!!" or "STRONG." It seems to be easier if you disallow the word "I", replacing it with "A MAN" (sorry, ladies, but it's a Robert E Howard world). Capitals help, too.
Like this:
A MAN COULD DRINK MORE BEER. BUT A MAN'S NEED TO MAKE WATER, OR TO LIE DOWN, MAY SOON OVERCOME HIM.
or
A STOAT MAY SPEAK TRUTH. BUT HOW COULD A MAN TELL? |
