Mad Drabbles
Here’s a fun activity guaranteed to get your creative juices flowing and give everyone a good chuckle at the same time – Mad Drabbles! It’s just like Mad Libs, where one person will write a drabble (don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be exactly 100 words) and leave certain key words blank. They will then post asking for someone else to provide words in certain categories and use that person’s responses to finish the drabble and post it here. Sound confusing? See these entries from Camp Sick!Wilson 2010 and see if that helps.
Each camper will receive a camper badge for providing words and a drabble badge for writing their own Mad Drabble. Please keep your answers and any Mad Drabbles you write in this thread so everyone can find them and enjoy. Remember, there’s no limit to how many people can provide words for each drabble so the more the merrier!
I’ve written two to get us started. Let me know which one you want and give me a word for each of the categories listed.

Wilson finally had empirical proof that nature was out to get him.
Hiking had seemed like a good idea given how much fun it had been the last time
he and House had gone. Of course last time it had merely been a bear after their
food, not a flamingo after their watches. And hiking 32 miles eating only the
creamy fillings of Oreos had been enjoyable compared to swimming for 32 hours
eating nothing but pretzels!
Wilson just counted his blessings that he made it through their hike with only a
sprained ankle!
Your turn to write one, I hope. :)

I might try it, but drabbles are nearly impossible for me because it takes me more than 100 words to answer 'what time is it?' LOL

“I told you swimming in this lake was a bad idea, House.”
“How was I supposed to know there was an infestation of sharks living here?”
“I wouldn’t be surprised if you lured them here using the leftover pancakes as bait.”
“Moi?”
“I saw your badge collection, House. What’s next? Paint Wilson violet for your arts
and crafts badge?”
“No, I think it’s learn how to bandage Wilson’s knuckle for when he hurts himself
while fishing.”
“Ass.”
“Hey, be nice to me or I won’t finish taking all these leeches off of your foot.”

“It’s not my fault. You’re the one who packed our stuff. Plus you forgot the possum repellant! That’s why all our Frisbees are missing! The armadillos must have eaten them!” House laughed at their situation. They survived on Oreo cream once before and they’d do it again. “It could be worse; we should have gotten strep throat from spending all day outside.
Just then they encountered a horrific tornado and were trapped in their camp stove for 12 days straight!

Wilson retched over the side of the boat. House sat across from him, fishing.
“I hate you. Who makes violet pancakes?”
“Who eats them?”
“Why didn’t you tell me the violet was clothing dye, not knuckles?”
“I promised the campers to show them your tie-dyed stool samples.”
“Oh, shit--!”
House put down his pole. “What? Already?”
“No, there’s—there’s fins!”
House joined his friend on the other side of the boat. Indeed, there were fins circling where Wilson had been upchucking. House grinned.
“Now that’s a foot!! Your puke is not only pleasing to the eyes, it’s shark chum!”
Wilson turned, his back against the railing, and stared at him. “Sharks? Sharks in the-in the LAKE?”
“Watch where you’re leaning, Wilson, the edge is all slippery from where you were---DAMN!”
