Remember Mad Libs? Of course you do; Mad Libs are
awesome.
In concocting
my comments for the current public comment period relating to the proposed .XXX sTLD, I ran into a form letter that has been submitted by a number of people. At first, it struck me as a pretty lazy approach to making a comment, but upon further reflection, I can see the appeal of not having to spend a lot of time on composing your own comments.
Then it hit me: in order to get both the convenience of a form letter and some degree of original thought into the same mix, what was needed as an
Anti-.XXX Mad Lib.
Thus inspired, I composed the brief .XXX related Mad Lib below.
Enjoy!

To Whom It May Concern:
My name is
{Proper Noun}, and I operate
{Domain Name}. I am fully opposed to the
{Adjective} proposal from ICM and its CEO, that
{Adjective} Stuart Lawley.
It?s very clear that this
{Adjective} proposal is nothing more than a
{Adjective} attempt at profiteering on the part of the
{Plural Noun} at ICM, and their
{Adjective} supporters from the domain registry sector.
Despite their repeated claims that the
{Adjective} proposal enjoys widespread support among members of the adult entertainment industry, ICM has yet to provide any compelling evidence that this claim is anything other than complete and utter
{Noun}, so only a
{Noun} would believe this
{Adjective} pile of
{Noun}.
In truth, not one adult entertainment company approves of .XXX, with the exception of
{Company or Individual Name} and
{Company or Individual Name}, who I find to be
{Adjective} and
{Adjective} and who I believe would sell their own
{Noun} if they thought it would make them a
{Type of Coin}.
If there were any justice in this
{Adjective} world, that
{Noun} Lawley would be strung up by his
{Anatomical Feature} and flogged with a
{Noun} until his
{Noun} fell off.
For the above reasons, and for too many other reasons to count, I call upon the ICANN Board to
{Verb} this
{Adjective} proposal. The proposal smells of
{Noun}, and it deserves nothing less than to be skull-
{Past Tense Verb} into oblivion.
Sincerely,
{Proper Noun}
PS ?
{Verb} that
{Noun} Lawley and the
{Noun} he
{Past Tense Verb} in on.
