[quote="Mariposa79"]I've been working on a something. I just need help on how to describe household stuff, or things in this time without actually telling what it really is. For example, car = automatic carriage jet plane = large bird that spouts out fire from it's behind. T.V. = box with moving pictures light = fire in a glass ball. etc etc..[/quote]
