.. So coming up for a title to this game probably deserves more than three seconds of thought, But I don't know how well any title could portray how the game works. Well, maybe "three degrees of separation", but that ignores the crucial element of this version...

Basically, the first person suggests two random things, could be pretty much anything;

Zebra and Tow-truck.

The next poster then has to link them up via characteristics, similarities or however.

Zebra - Zebra crossing - traffic - car crash - Tow-Truck.

.. then, once the link is complete, the poster can go on to suggest their own pair of randomings!

Another example;
Bullet-hole and wednesday...

Bullet-hole - guns - trigger - trigger happy tv - friday nights - wednesday.

So here's the first puzzler;

Toothbrush and Sand.
