This has ZERO to do with fandom, but...

A friend and I were just discussing this over IM. What are your top ten tabletop games?

10.) Life; So like there's me in my pink plastic car (excuse me, cars plural) filled with kids heading into the poor house. WTF -- can I fucking spin again?

9.) Operation; The ONLY explanation for my having fucked up nerves. Buzzzzzz!

8.) Uno; Draw four MOTHERFUCKAH!

7.) Mille Bournes; It's French. It makes no fucking sense until you've read the directions FIVE times. What's not to love?

6.) Monopoly (LotR edition); Because who wouldn't want to own Rivendell and Lothlorien?

5.) Battleship; I totally used to cheat and move my ships :P

4.) Clue (Too bad there was no HP edition); Snape did it in the Potions lab...with Harry!

3.) Stratego; Fuck chess! I'll bet Ron would be good at this.

2.) Trivial Pursuit; 80's edition fersure! Like totally.

1.) Candyland; Simplistic as fuck but still so cool.

--P

Milles Bournes
PIT! Cripes, used to go to a religious private school, cards were banned. We'd play this in the storage closet, flashlights only. It's IMPOSSIBLE to play that game without making a racket, so it added so much to it to play quietly. We only got busted once. *strut*
Moolah - really hard to find game, absolutely fun as hell.
Mad Magazine Game: Where else can you play a game that says if you're poor, switch your places with the dude who's winning.?
Life - only place I'd allow myself to have babies, though babies for profit is a novel idea.
Farming game - grow your crops and lose everything anyway. Beautiful. Damn government!
Stock Ticker
Balderdash - make up definitions to really weird words, then convince people yours is the real definition.

TOO many games! We lived in the mountains, no TV when I was a kid. We had scads of games, still do.

Gotta love those pink and blue plastic pegs.

Congratulations! Twin girls!

Um, could you please hand me another car?
