A long time ago I picked up something called "Wimsy Cards" at a con 
distributed by Lion  Rampant.  They are pretty simple things with "error of 
judgment' and "trade places", "personality clash" each with a brief (yet 
broad description.)
This was before the CCG era.  Now I would get some blank CCG cards and fill 
out the back or paste something on with rubber cement.  I know you can get 
blanks for INWO CCG.

At the time I though they were neat to introduce random elements in to a 
game.  I haven't run a game since I bought them so I have no idea how they 
work.
