Un-Associated Word Game - We Will Never Ever Get to 1000

It goes like this, look at the last poster's word, think of another word that has absolutely no connection with is whatsoever, then post it.

For example, the previous poster may have posted the word 'Hovercraft'. So I think of another word that has absolutely nothing to do with a Hovercraft, then I post it. Simples Grin. For example I could have chosen Buttercup, Trumpet or Cushion. Well....actually not Cushion because an air-cushion does have a connection to Hovercrafts. See, it's not so easy as it looks Blush.

So here goes with the first one: Samosa

Should we challenge if we perceive a connection?

Anyway...

Er, shouldn't someone have challenged bathroom/toilet ?

Grass/kettle is borderline - grass=pot, pot and kettle ...

Anyhow -

*INTERJECTION
Rule clarification No 1. A poster may challenge a previous poster but not after a subsequent poster has played their turn notwithstanding the challenge. In other words, play on if others do. A poster who challenges but is proven to have challenged falsely or without good reason must then undertake three turns successfully. They need to post three completely random words. This will be difficult so the pressure is on. If any of those three random words are associated in any way, the poster must then record that afternoon's edition of Countdown on their mobile phone and post in in this thread while reciting the words "I am a banana" at three minute intervals.
