[THIRTY-SIX] SCORE AND [NINTEEN] YEARS AGO OUR FATHERS BROUGHT FORTH [BELOW] THIS [SEPTIC TANK] A [SMELLY] NATON: Leonard B. Stern, the creator of Mad Libs and the person who taught me that the term "Septic Tank" makes everything funny, has died at the age of 88.

Rightly, plenty of obituaries are drawing from the Mad Libs stylebook but I assume that most of you, like me, had a favorite word that always worked with Mad Libs. Please share.

    As a kid, for some reason we were partial to "bun" and "buns".... "smelly" usually worked well too.
