Fuck, Marry, Kill (sometimes abbreviated FMK) is a forced choice game in which the player(s) are asked to assign a given group of three people into which ones they would like to have sex with, wed or murder respectively, and to explain why. The group most often consists of objects of the players' sexual interest.

A number of online versions of the game exist, although they lack the audience sometimes considered essential to its enjoyment. There is now a website dedicated to the playing of this game called jemple.com which allows people to sign-up, and rate other members' photos in a unique worldwide version of the game. Howard Stern has played the game many times on his popular radio show, sometimes with celebrity guests and sometimes with staff members on the show. Other local radio shows have included the games in their shows as well, including Kansas City's morning shock jock, Johnny Dare. This is also an understandably popular game with college students, given its admittedly ribald nature and the wide selection of possible choices.

The game has found its way into pop culture, such as articles in The Onion[1] and an appearance in the sitcom 30 Rock (in which the game is called "marry, boff, kill").
