Anyone have a good idea for a game like this?!
Question: tonight my aunt and cousin started playing a game. they would start a sentence with: "i'm going camping and i'm gonna bring..." and then they would end with two items that started with the first letter of their first name for the first item, and the first letter of their last name for the second item. they just started saying these and at the end the other would say "ooooooh. looks like you're going camping." it was really frustrating at first because when we would say what we're going to bring, they'd say that we weren't going camping. (only THEY knew the trick to what a person brings). i figured it out in five minutes and got in on the joke. but the rest of my family that was there still haven't figured it out.
ANYWAYS....
i'm wondering if anyone knows of any games like this that can be played. ones that have a twist in them that you have to figure out to be in on the joke.
they don't have to be just like this one, but similar.

Deep but not profound

The rules: Say a phrase of the form _____ but not _____.
First blank must be a word that has two of the same letter in a row. Second blank must not be a word that has two of the same letter in a row.
Examples:
Deep but not profound
Bee but not wasp
Boot but not shoe
Apple but not orange
king mao is the biggest game that makes no sense yet is ridiculously funny at the same time.
3 basic rules:
1) no talking
2) it's like uno/crazy eights (jack of hearts, you play down either a heart or a jack. eight of spades, you play down an eight or a spade. simple, until you get to...)
3) no talking about the other rules. there are a lot of them, and whoever wins gets to add on another rule. guessing the rules is really hard.
you do need someone who already knows how to play first.
