I hereby reincarnate the "Just imagine..." thread on the new forums...
EDIT: I'd just like to note that I would greatly appreciate it if the "Imagine..." thread was kept in a mildly serious light, so that it might prove useful.  Thank you for appreciating my intentions...

"Imagine a world where alignment is completely opposite.
Imagine a world where the gods walk among the people.
Imagine a world where humans are only a legend.
Imagine a world ruled by good devils.
Imagine a world made completely of plants.
Imagine a world made completely of city.
Imagine a world where the very surface had been split between law and chaos.
Imagine a world formed out of dreams.
Just imagineâ,¬Â¦"

Wix of Bel-Air

Imagine a world where half-orcs served as emperors.
Imagine a world where plane-shifting was as easy as stepping outside.
Imagine a world without physical limitations.
Imagine a world where power was to sing.
Imagine a world where everyone was dead.
Eats brains here! Ugh!
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.

[spoiler=Cthulhu]"To obtain a deep, restful, and fulfilling sleep, you must first submerge yourself in your cyclopean city of hideous non-Euclidean geometries beneath the sea, and then let your body die. But don't worry! As long as you continue to emanate enough evil thought-energy to influence and control your many worshippers throughout the untold eons, they will resurrect you when the time comes. I guarantee it!" [/spoiler]

Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive."

(as Stegosaurus) "We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land'."

(as T-Rex) "I think we should call it...your grave!"

(Stegosaurus) "Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

(T-Rex) "Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh...now die!"
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Stanza 11]
No! penury, inertness and grimace,
In some strange sort, were the land's portion. "See
Or shut your eyes," said Nature peevishly,
"It nothing skills: I cannot help my case:
'Tis the Last Judgment's fire must cure this place,
Calcine its clods and set my prisoners free."

Elven Doritos

Imagine a world where the world was literally in black and white.
Imagine a world where plants ruled.
Imagine a world where the only feature was a single tower.

Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night
For it was all ripe for dreaming
Oh, how we danced away all of the lights
We've always been out of our minds

A few from Herodotus:
Imagine a world with domesticated giant ants.
Imagine a world full of very small people.
Imagine a world where men eat other men.
Imagine a world where men eat only one single plant.

Imagine a world where people admit when they're wrong and apologize.
Imagine a world where nobody had to eat.
Imagine a world where fire didn't consume, but still produced heat.

Senkennomei

Imagine a world ripped to pieces and suspended in a void
Imagine a world devoid of land and filled with air
Imagine a world where dimensions shift with every turn
Imagine a world entwined around itself
Imagine a world of ever-shifting landscapes
Imagine a world of toxic seas
Imagine a world where water and air have exchanged places
Imagine a world where humans are under control of animals
Imagine a world completely surrounded by a net of suns
Imagine a world where one can touch the sun and moon
Imagine a world where machinery is natural, and nature is man-made

Imagine a world inversed, land on the inside and nothing but soil and rock stretching for eternity. The sun sits dead center of the "planet", and regularly folds in unto itself to enable nightfall.
