Jeopardy Story

When someone is telling an incredibly boring story but you can't stop them because you sparked the conversation.

Similar to the game show Jeopardy, where host Alex Trebek has to endure the painfully boring stories of the contestants.

Luke: ...so I go to the store and then Ernie is there, and he's, like, staring at me and then he pushes his cart awa-

Harry: I hate to interrupt you, but this is a total Jeopardy story.

"Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold

Refers to da substitute-for-grumbling-at-a delay vocal action dat you engage in while unexpectedly/unavoidably having to wait for something basic or mundane to occur, such as for equipment to warm up, someone to answer da phone, a web-page to load on an internet-computer, etc. Great for when you're either babysitting children (for whom soft singing is often an effectively-calming/soothing way of "placating them for a few" till a desired action/event can happen) or presently have one or more adult-colleagues there who need certain actions and/or information-locating performed on their behalf, and so you are sympathetically showing them dat you hate having to be held up, as well, just da same as they do.

Everyone loves da catchy "Alex Trebek waiting for da contestants to think of an answer" melody, so performing a round of "Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold can work wonders to make everyone feel less grumpy/impatient at having to take a little longer than normal for something they want to happen.

"Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold

What you do to remindingly indicate to someone dat you're patiently waiting for him to tell you an answer, finish up with something, etc.

You hafta be careful about employing da "Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold technique to gently pressure someone to get his a** in gear and be forthcoming with whatever action he's supposed to be doing for you --- some people really enjoy said catchy tune, and so your melodiously warbling it might actually SLOW HIM DOWN because he loves listening to it so much; heck, you might even PUT HIM TO SLEEP if you softly vocalize said soothing melody for too long a time! :P

Family Jeopardy

To play this demented but fun game you will need your family to participate ( pets included!) Before sitting down to watch Alex Trebek grace us with his vast knowledge in jeopardy, each family member must strip naked. After each family member is naked, each player must put their hand firmly on the opposing family members genitals ( Even number families are encourged to play this game only). Instead of buzzing in with the correct answer, the player has to stroke or "beat" the shit out of the opposing players genital that their hand is on in order to make the loudest noise ( ex: balls hitting the leg , or vaginal lips flapping loudest). The person creating the loudest noise will be choosen by a family member who participates in being "Alex". Also money is not an object in this game, after each round whoever climaxed the most is eliminated. Finally once the players/player reaches final jeopardy and answers the question correctly, they are forced to drink the loosing players semen in order to gain immortality.

Man, I totally look at my sister in a new perspective now after playing Family Jeopardy.

joke jeopardy

it's a game you can play like jeopardy where you are presented with the "answer" or punchline to a joke and are asked to come up with the "question" or a statement that otherwise would elicit that punchline.

"Want to play joke jeopardy?"

examples:

punchline: to get to the other side.
setup: Why did the chicken cross the road?

punchline: the gooey-decimal system.
setup: How are porno stores organized?
