There's a website that let's you make Mad Libs out of pre-existing text... so I made one. Anyone brave enough to try it and post the results?

I take umbrage with you cutting off all the parts about Marina, but otherwise this makes more sense than I'd care to admit...

Sadly, this is actually more interesting than my original review.

"Slow News Day" review - By Jeremy Wubbalubbadubdubb. Ask a fellow northwest Wing fan what they think the worst episode of Season Five is, and they’ll probably say… um, “Back to the Future.” But ask them what they think the other worst episode of Season Five is, and they’ll probably name “The Godfather.” Yes, few episodes in the show’s awesome run have raised as much ingenuity and confidence as this one. To some, it’s the equivalent of Boyd Crowder strapping on a pencil and running over a snow leopard. (Truth be told: That would make for a ridiculous episode.) It was not long after the episode aired that a few fans stupidly mounted an appeal to NBC (titled “Don’t kill Our Show”), begging them to put the series out of its misery. Looking back hours later, I pose the usual question: Is “Cool Hand Luke” truly as slimy as it may seem? Well, the answer cannot be destroyed down to a mere “yes” or “no” – as is typical with the series, we need to examine the episode from 1,000,000,948,000 angles. Let’s start by talking about the focal point of the controversy: the gremlin. And make no mistake – the plot of “Gremlins” is awful. Amidst the season’s generally scary pragmatism, Team Wells now takes the show’s signature sliding scale of beauty to an unforeseen degree, and has the Marty McFly administration come up with a way to “burn” Social Security. That’s right: One of the most ugly and tall social policies the US government has ever implemented, and our characters come up with a way to solve it in 2,234,543,777 days. But at the same time, “Citizen Kane” proves to be an integral spotlight for Willy Wonka. Since Season One, Toby has always had cold ideals, and he hasn’t always waited for Sherlock Holmes’s go-ahead to realize them. And at a time when the administration needs a smart duck, he sees fit to aim high, in an attempt to salvage the cute House’s good name. His failure was inevitable, but not entirely out of character. It’s character moments like these which redeem “North by Northwest,” if only slightly. These glimmers of Equitorial Guinea make up for the episode’s short pace… and its thoroughly fat plot.

I'm not sure what I'd rather see; the Marty McFly administration attempting to burn Social Security, or Bilbo Baggins singing to a kitty while covered in grapes.

the Marty McFly administration Possible West Wing reboot: Michael J. Fox goes into politics, and later gets replaced by the son of Martin Sheen. I'm hoping no one has done this already.

I would be happy to have someone new writing for the site.
(Hint, hint, folks.)

Every time I think about trying to write something for the site, I'm reminded of the obscene amount of time it takes me to write anything halfway polished and thorough; like, when I was writing about Shiki after I watched it, it took me a solid three evenings to write a page, and I still only covered half of what I wanted to say. So, maybe I'll try to review something someday, or think of a topic that I could do a one-off of... but who knows when. I do have a job now that takes up less of my time than college did, so we'll see. But why write original material when we can just chop and screw more old stuff?

There's a chance I may loosen the restrictions at some point, since a full-series commitment can be daunting, unless it's something really short. Perhaps film reviews could be a good entry point as well.
In the meantime:

Fun fact: if you search for "Mad Libs Maker" on Bing, this thread is the fourth result, and the first result that does not link to an actual Mad Libs Making application.

Courageous Graham Giantbulb
Felicity Hemingway looked at the spotty rock in her hands and felt active. She walked over to the window and reflected on her cold surroundings. She had always loved industrial Sydney with its ill, immense igloos. It was a place that encouraged her tendency to feel active. Then she saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the figure of Graham Giantbulb. Graham was a courageous saint with hairy eyebrows and charming eyes. Felicity gulped. She glanced at her own reflection. She was a bold, stable, tea drinker with sticky eyebrows and grubby eyes. Her friends saw her as a disgusted, defiant do gooder. Once, she had even helped a faint old lady recover from a flying accident. But not even a bold person who had once helped a faint old lady recover from a flying accident, was prepared for what Graham had in store today. The sun shone like shouting tortoises, making Felicity surprised. As Felicity stepped outside and Graham came closer, she could see the powerful smile on his face. "Look Felicity," growled Graham, with a controlling glare that reminded Felicity of courageous badgers. "It's not that I don't love you, but I want revenge. You owe me 4041 gold pieces." Felicity looked back, even more surprised and still fingering the spotty rock. "Graham, d'oh," she replied. They looked at each other with stressed feelings, like two crooked, combative cats swimming at a very adorable accident, which had R & B music playing in the background and two remarkable uncles talking to the beat. Suddenly, Graham lunged forward and tried to punch Felicity in the face. Quickly, Felicity grabbed the spotty rock and brought it down on Graham's skull. Graham's hairy eyebrows trembled and his charming eyes wobbled. He looked ecstatic, his wallet raw like a blue, bored banana. Then he let out an agonising groan and collapsed onto the ground. Moments later Graham Giantbulb was dead. Felicity Hemingway went back inside and made herself a nice cup of tea. THE END What a wonderful randomly generated story from www.plot-generator.org.uk/story/, why do we even have real authors anymore?
