This thread is for people who love improv or are curious about it. For those who don't know, 'improv' us just short for 'improvisational comedy'. It is tons of fun, whether you're just watching or actually playing. I know that thee aren't a lot of improv games that can be played on a forum, but one of them is called 185. This game is basically a structured joke, sort of. It goes like this: "185 *blanks* walk into a bar. The barkeeper. says, 'Sorry, we don't serve *blanks* here,' and the *blanks* say, *punchline*." The 'blanks' are simply whatever the subject of the joke is, and you  on your own punchline. Here's an example: 185 dragons walk into a bar. The barkeeper says "Sorry, we don't serve dragons here" and the dragons say "Ooh, burn!" (Yes, I know that was lame, but it works.) Also, the structure can be changed a little to aid your joke. I will give an example of this when I think of one...

I'll get it started with a real one now.
185 wizards walk into a bar. The barkeeper says "Sorry, we don't serve wizards here" and the wizards say "We cannot pass?"

Have fun!
A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight!

This sounds fun, but at present my mind is * blank.*

I have taken some Improv classes before!

Martin the Warrior is way more epic than Mickey Mouse. Anyone who says otherwise is insane, or just wrong.

  185 elderly citizens walk into a soda shop.  The man at the counter says, "Sorry, we don't serve elderly citizens here."  The elderly citizens reply, "You jerk!"

  (Sorry if that one's a bit lame, it was the only thing I could think of.  :P  And if you don't get it, the people who would serve soda at a soda fountain would be called a 'soda jerk'.  ;))
