Word Association Game — now home to more than 5500 posts!

A simple game, where you say a word or two about the first thing that comes to your mind on reading the above post's words.
We are not replying to each other, we are simply associating words with those that pop up in our heads.

Rules:

• Do not quote the above post, because you're always talking about the above post anyway. It's a waste of space.
• Derailing by posting "hookers", "waffles", et al, is not permitted. If you can't come up with something other than a reaction (for we are not reacting, we are associating words), don't post.
• Posting "what" or something similar if you don't understand what the above person is saying or how they associated the words is not acceptable.
• Refrain from using generic words such as "mine", because they really do apply to everything.
• Please do not reply to yourself.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE RULES WILL RESULT IN YOU GETTING METEOR SWARM'D
TO DEATH.
Seriously guys, it's 5 bullet points and a couple of sentences at the top.
(Repeat offenders shall be called names.)
