Loaded Questions

Loaded Questions is a board game where one person asks a question like, "What would your ideal job be?" Each of the other person writes down their answers, then someone reads all the answers out loud. The person who asked the question then has to determine who gave which answer.
When our family plays the game, it's too easy, because we know that all of Scout's answers will be related to Narnia, and all of Erma's will have something to do with Joe Mauer, etc. So we've invented Lying Loaded Questions. The object is to make up a ridiculous answer, which makes it harder to determine who said what.
One of my favorites so far: If you found $20 on the street, what would you buy with it? Porcupine ointment.

just out of curiousity, is that ointment for the porcupine, ointment containing porcupine, or ointment for the effects of being porcupined?

another question: if you could have any pet, other than a cat or dog, what animal would you want?

answer: a cat
