Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Please. I just got a message from someone in the office about cornholing. I'm afraid to open the message.

It's a sport similar to horseshoes. Appalachian in origin in this country and experiencing a resurgence (at least here in the Midwest.) My uncle makes cornhole platforms and we've played it at every family cookout this year.

Yeah, it's a beanbag-type game, and got really popular here about 4-5 years ago. It's really common to see houses with signs in their front yards -- the kind that say, for instance, "Tomatoes, Apples, Honey: 4 Sale!" -- that say "Cornhole Games Made Here 4 Sale!"

Who knew that vulgarly named yard games were a cottage industry?

Damn you people, now ND's going to start singing it at me again. I haven't seen the movie yet, but he can't resist breaking into song anytime he sees Sean's tagline.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Ok - was just given my shopping list for BevMo:

2 cases (24) Sierra Nevada
2 cases Pacifico
1 case budwieser
1 case coors lite
5 bottles Yellowtail Chardonnay
5 bottles assorted red wine

Ok - what kind of red wine? I am an idiot when it comes to choosing wines. This is just for a picnic. Basic BBQ food. Nothing fancy...but I don't want to buy swill or something too good - ya know?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Cornholing is most definitely a known euphemism for anal.

In fact, that's how I first heard of the practice when I was 7.

I'd just by some Yellowtail merlot and/or shiraz. Easy, and you're staying with the brand. As I recall, it doesn't suck.
