Choose a Brother Strong!

Strong Libs is a parody of the game Mad Libs featuring The Brothers Strong. They have the same basic concept as Mad Libs, where the player supplies various names and parts of speech in a prompt. The chosen words are then placed into blank spaces in a short story, the results of which can be very funny.

The Strong Bad libs generate humorous insults and put-downs, while Strong Mad's are all shouts of doom and destruction. Strong Sad's, naturally, offer depressing stories.

[edit] Fun Facts

[edit] Glitches

In the story pages for the Strong Mad Libs and Strong Sad Lib 1, the libs' text can be edited (including copying and pasting) much like a normal word processor.
After completing Strong Sad's third lib, pressing 'Go Back', and then returning to the lib, the second-to-last blank will still be filled in.

[edit] Fast Forward

Strong Libs return in A Jumping Jack Contest, in which the viewer can play a Strong Lib while waiting for the toon to load.
In homestar hair, Strong Bad suggests that his viewers send him completed Strong Libs instead of Hairstyle Runner images.
In lackey, a Strong Lib-like activity is playable in an Easter egg.

-==Summary==
+{{aoldgamenav|stronglibs}}
-Have you ever played Mad Libs? If so this is the same basic concept, except that you only have a few you can do and once you do them it gets boring. For the few people out there who haven't played Mad Libs, basically there is a story with blanks placed strategically all over it where words should be. Now the blanks often have words under them, like noun or adjective and these tell you what kind of words you can put there. It's pretty fun and it gives you a chance to widen your vocabulary a bit.
