New Contest: Pick the Next Challenge!

Next challenge starts 1 week from today and we need ideas!

I'm going to have a contest to see who can issue the beset challenge the winner gets the honor of having their challenge be used!

The format:

Must start with/iclude the phrase: "... .... ..."
Must be a minimum (or maximum) of: X # of words.
Must be rated a maximum of: whatever rating you choose.
Must include: pick something like a song, tv show, uh... character. Something.
And choose a topic: love, hate, war, friendship, sex, etc?

And I'll pick based on what's most versitile and seems the most fun to write.

Dean: Talking to a messenger of God on a cell phone. It's kind of like watching a Hell's Angel riding a moped.
Castiel: This isn't funny, Dean. The voice says I'm almost out of minutes.

I think this thread should stay active.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Your challenges are wonderful. All of them.

We've already got a ton of ideas here... maybe we could try utilising them first?

Obviously, though, if anyone has any ideas they'd be very welcomed :D.
