Mirror, mirror - An opposites word game

I imagine that this sort of game has been done before... If not, I hope it will prove interesting.

 

The idea is simple: it begins with a word, and the next poster must post an "opposite" of that word and then add a new word for the next poster.

 

For example:

The first poster writes sick.

The opposite of that might be healthy or it might be dead or it might be salubrious ... whatever might be an opposite. It may not be a straightforward opposite, depending on the word.

 

In this example, the second poster therefore might write not vomiting, and then add any new word such as daisy.

 

The third poster would write an "opposite" of daisy, such as rose or orchid... or lemon (as daisy could also be a synonym for high achiever), and then add their own new word... and so on.

 

So... first word is

 

 

pant

Ah, we have another double-pronged situation... so I'll tackle them both. Unfortunately I can't squish them together, because a congealed Dachshund is just not a lovely image.

 

congealed - fluid

Dachshund - pug
