The Online YA Dystopia Generator!

[rachelmanija]

telophase has created an online YA dystopia generator!

Thrill: Nudity has been banned and the government controls darkness.

Bounce: Heterosexuality has been banned and the government controls popsicles.

Leap: Roads have been banned and the government controls gravity.

I'm sure she's still adding to it, so feel free to suggest titles and things which could be banned or controlled.

Boy: Bird watching has been banned and the government controls llamas.

Ahahahahaha, I love it. And I am a birdwatcher, so I may have to try that one...I imagine people have to shut their eyes whenever a bird flies by, lest a cop see them. Although that seems potentially dangerous for driving ("Officer, I swear I wasn't watching that bird--I just caught an accidental glimpse of it as I tried not to drive into that telephone pole.").

I am not sure why the government is controlling llamas.

[rydra_wong]

They don't want you to know why!

[holyschist]

Perhaps that is the central mystery of the story. What's so important about llamas?

(Maybe they are actually intelligent aliens and the government fears they will band together with the birds and destroy human civilization.)

Only the Resistance know! The Resistance, and that hot mysterious boy who the heroine saw hiding a pair of binoculars.

hot mysterious boy girl

Can my dystopian YA have lesbians? Dystopian YA is so heteronormative!

[rydra_wong]

Oh, please. Anything to keep it out of the Twilight mould.
