This is a simple game to play. It starts by one person stating a seemngly factual statement, the next poster responds by proving him/her wrong through some twist of logic or word play. It can be a deliberate misreading of a word such as:
Person 1: Life is full of bitter dissapointments
Person 2: Wrong! Life is a delicious cereal without a trace of bitterness.
The trick is to be clever and poke a hole in a seemingly airtight statement.
After you have proved the previous poster wrong you follow it with your own airtight statetment for the next poster to disprove. Here you are trying to get a statement that cannot be disproven.
Personal opinions are fine for establishing truth, but the game is more fun if you avoid them. Creativity is the name of the game boys and girls so get those thinking caps on. Try to keep the proofs and statements inside the realm of possibility, they don't have to be true but.
Here is an actual snippet from the original thread I got this from so you can see how it's done.
