The object of the game is to pick a word and use it in a sentence as a noun. Then use the same word as a verb.:popcorn:

Word: fee

Used as a noun: The store was charged a fee for not closing the freezer.

Used as a verb: The store was feed for not closing the freezer.

Ok, I understand the game, but I don't understand your example, especially since you violate your own rules and used 2 different words. The 2nd sentence also does not make sense.

It's the same word. I just used the word "fee" as a verb in the past tense in the 2nd sentence.;)

Interesting idea, but fined would've fit much better IMO.

Yeah, I don't think "feed" is used to mean "was charged a fee".

Anyhow, I'll bite. The word is smack.

When I saw Numbnuts wandering around doing nothing, I gave him a smack.

I smack him every time I see him wandering around doing nothing.

Grease is the word.


The mechanic put grease on the bearings.

That is to say, he greased the bearings.

The word is Suck.

On this site we tell stories of monumental suck.

Boy that customer sucked.

The word is Lie

In the past two and a half years, I've heard too many lies.

Every time I talk to idiot, he lies through his teeth.
