Well, Cait., surprisingly, this one HAS got rules...
The first player chooses the first word of a sentence. Each subsequent player adds a word to the sentence, which must always (potentially) make sense, while never being completed. Any player can challenge a move on one of two grounds - either the sentence is completed, in which case the person who placed the last word loses, or the sentence no longer makes sense. With this challenge, the person who made the last move has one chance to complete the sentence sensibly - if they fail, they lose. If they succeed the challenger loses. Everybody else wins - most games only have one winner, this game only has one loser...
Hope that helped
