What is Illogicopedia?
Edit
- See Illogicopedia:About for more information.
Illogicopedia is an insane repository of words put together in no particular order. It could be defined as a collection of randomness, a celebration of playful stupidity, insanity and silliness in general.
?pedia is an abbreviation of Illogicopedia; Illogia – either referring to the Illogicopedian project or some sort of fictional institution (a la Uncyclopedia's Uncyclomedia) – and Illogi are also widely used, the latter being the prefix for sub-projects such as IllogiDictionary and IllogiBooks.

How do I write good nonsense?
Edit
Some general ideas:
- Write before you think; you never know just what might come out! If fine according to content policy as well as "interesting to look at and possibly even read", then there you go!
- Use your mind to come up with spurious associations.
- Let your thoughts wander (into strange territory), mashing together the things you come across.
