null1 606 January 17, 2013 Share January 17, 2013 I got this cool thing to share/inform people about (if never heard of it, that is). Palindromes are words, phrases, or strings of letters that can be read in either direction, for example: radar god a red nugget, a fat egg under a dog I first learned of this years back after seeing Weird Al's "Bob" music video. Perfect example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nej4xJe4Tdg Now I'm curious to see the collective creativity of the forum to make up their own palindromes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help? Man, it is hot. I’m in it. I tell. I am not a devil. I level “Mad Dog”. Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp, In my halo of a mired rum tin. I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin. Is evil in a clam? In a trap? No. It is open. On it I was stuck. Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web. Be still if I fill its ebb. Ew, a spider… eh? We sleep. Oh no! Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position. Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name. Both, one… my names are in it. Murder? I’m a fool. A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash, A Goddam level I lived at. On mail let it in. I’m it. Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet! A loss it is alas (sip). I’d assign it a name. Name not one bottle minus an ode by me: “Sir, I deliver. I’m a dog” Evil is a deed as I live.

Descant 1,897 January 17, 2013 Share January 17, 2013 (edited) Girafarig. Alomomola. Racecar. A man, a plan, a canal, Panama! Rats live on no evil star. Are we not drawn onward, we few, drawn onward to new era? Draw, O coward! Never odd or even. Edited January 17, 2013 by Descant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betez 1,734 January 17, 2013 Share January 17, 2013 Everyone knows Racecar, and then there's really simple ones like mom and dad. There's one I saw in an I-Spy book, Lion oil. I never made the connection with Girafarig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,684 January 17, 2013 Share January 17, 2013 Evil is upon us. Why is this world, dark on us. The world is changing. Imagine what we can create. An evil seed, doing these evil deeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDragoniteDestiny 23 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 There is actually a book about that called something along the lines of "Otto, the Racecar----" I really don't know the rest, but the story is laid out like this: there's this kid that loves palindromes and anagrams because his first and last names are both palindromes, he's also like a 12-year-old kid who is a racing prodigy and already has his driver's license. You should look into it if you like palindromes so much! But yeah, I got the phrase "Yo' banana boy" from it, and I've never forgotten it.-TheDragoniteDestiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z Star 189 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Dr. Awkward! Haha I wish I knew more than just the ones everyone else knows.... I mean, I would make up words just so that they could be palindromes. Hahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamil 315 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Obviously the best palindrome ever is as follows I None can deny that this is the same forwards and backwards. It is also the same upwards, downwards, inwards, outwards, diagonally, spiralwise and in curves, making it one of the few multi-dimensional palindromes.

Pony Joe 582 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 (edited) -giganticpalindromesnip- ~Demitri Martin same forwards and backwards In his book "This is a Book," he has an entire section dedicated to original palindromes, including one that's over two and a half pages long. While I'm too lazy to copy that entire one down (and can't seem to find it online), here are some of the shorter ones. Son, say a papaya. Papayas. No "s." Ya, get an ID, robust, subordinate gay. Snub no man. Nice cinnamon buns! Edited January 22, 2013 by Pony Joe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
