Heh. We feel that way about Hellen Keller, usually.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
there is no scoring to do
Then it's not a game!
Apples to Apples is one of the few party games I don't like, specifically because of its subjectivity.
I've never heard of it. But then, I've had problems with the subjectivity some people apply to Scrabble. Forget Balderdash. It's a minefield.

I should have said adding. It is scored, but in a very basic way with pictures that little kids can handle better.

Yeah, then you would not like Apples to Apples for sure.

you know what I wish?? I wish I could use my Touch as a flash drive. I should be able to store Powerpoints and documents for my classes on it.
Le sigh.

Harrumph. Little kids need to grow up.
I'm still holding a grudge against the people that scored against me in Balderdash because I said a lycanthrope was a werewolf and a doppleganger was a double. Apparently a lycanthrope is someone who (because they're mentally ill) thinks they're a werewolf, and a doppleganger is a ghostly double. People, get out more. Read different sorts of books. I'm sure in another ten years I might get over it. Maybe.

My mom is just now getting around to arranging summer travel for the nephew. Which means that in less that 2 weeks I need to be flying out to pick him up. Which, fine, but jesus that is soon and I've just got a lot on my plate, damnit.

Well, when you have a sister that goes apeshit when her kids don't do "simple" things fast enough, you learn to get games that don't require tasks above their level. (Since in my family you don't let kids win and you don't do their work for them.)

Maybe. That is totally the kind of thing I would be cheesed about forever.

Our wings are not tired.
I wish I could rememeber the name of the card game that my gramps and I played all the time in his last 10 years. Each player is given cards, there are four different colors, it's kinda like Rummy? Sound familiar?? Numbered 1-16 I think?
I think it starts with an S.
