Lightbulb A brand new game

As far as I'm aware, no-one's ever come up with this one before (apart from me on another board). The idea came to me when the little voices in my head ceased talking English after too much exposure to Firefly ....... ahem. Anyway, in the spirit of Firefly's Chinese cursing, this is a game where you have a conversation in gibberish (or nonsense, if you don't' speak gibberish). There are a couple of conditions:

1> Make it pronounceable: it has to *sound* like a conversation. No ";aihewsrlgifuaewlfia", please.

2> Don't use real language: it has to *be* gibberish (again, or nonsense). Thus 'suderestemai do mei' is okay because I made it up just now (even if it is a real language somewhere), whereas 'Hier sprechen wir' is not, because I know it's German.

3> Be inventive: cursing in gibberish, in particular, is *always* fun!

4> If it sounds right, it is right - answer questions, shout down idiotic suggestions, do what you will.

5> Don't translate - it makes it boring.
