ColourSchemer - that is awesome. I have, hmm, a few cardboard boxes and ice cream boxes. I would love make a set-up for that, but the only issue I have is that if you substitute 'lego bricks' for 'screws' you realise that you've become your Dad.
CONGRATULATIONS - you just WON The Game FOREVER. Or you can carry on being a humourless nugget - your call.

Too late, I already adopted booty bothered, I only have so much room for non-Lego lifeforms. Besides, she cooks, cleans, and runs errands while I'm at work. What do you offer?

My bricks are sorted by stud dimensions. All 1x1 bricks go in one box, all 1x2 in another, and so on. Then there are some special boxes for minifigs, bionicle parts, etc.

Not a SHIP that is a ship, but rather a SHIP that is a Rover.

I've tried a few times to come up with an Acronym:
Rediculously Ostentatious Vehicle with Excessive Results

It's..... In Progress....

Poor use of the word ostentatious, though it's nice to see old 'osty getting some play.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.
