Fantasy is number one. Steampunk, sci-fi, alternate history, and everything else that isn't boringly realistic are also fine by me.
There are a lot of famous quotes out there - words that have inspired people for generations and enlightened readers of inspiration cat posters everywhere.
And there's nothing that can turn a quote in a 180 like attributing it to the wrong person!



This game is played by taking a well-known quote, but crossing out the original speaker's name and replacing it with one that achieves a comedic effect. For example:


"Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever."
- Napoleon Bonaparte Anonymous


History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
- Sir Winston Churchill Adolf Hitler


"You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.
- Leon Trotsky Uncle Sam
 
"Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."
Mark Twain Micah M. White


^ hope that's the sort of thing you meant :)
