It seems like I'm at the age where drinking parties are no longer about trashing your friends parent's house but now their about getting drunk playing board games.

I for one F'ing HATE board games. I can not remember a time when one was finished, they take forever, nobody ever really knows the rules, it's all judgement calls, people always seem to argue about STUPID crap.

They are the slightly more adult version of drinking games. I hate drinking games too, I don't need a game to make me drink, I do fine on my own.

Stosh, looking at your poll, what the hell games are you playing that have buzzers??

The only board game I really care for is Trivial Persuit and that's because I kick everyone's ass in it. I don't think I've played that or any board game in like a year though.

Now that is a party!

When I used to live in Cincinnati a redneck friend of mine used to have some crazy after work parties. One of them I was too drunk to drive but I had to move my car and ended up running over his mailbox, the solution to the broken mailbox was to soak it in gas and light it. Burn baby burn.

I tried to play solitaire with a deck of cards not too long ago. What a pain in the ass shuffling and dealing and moving cards around and stuff.

Oh man thats so awesome!!

The only good party left in my life is the one I throw every year.

I don't think we're throwing it this year.

I looove to play board games, but it's not normally something we do as a drinking event. A buddy of mine I used to work with is into games big time. We used to play some type of card/board game at least once a week at lunch. We occasionally head over to his place for an afternoon of multiple games or one big long game of Advanced Civilization. Sounds geeky, but is a great way to spend the afternoon (if I'm not out riding my bike that is )

Baby Fish Mouth!!!!! anyone know the reference?


I usually only play board games with either my entire family or my religious friends.

 

[McGRP01]

I only play board games when they involve drinking....and getting naked. :devil:

 

[SkaredShtles]

I love *some* board games. As of late I've been playing alot of the Tonka Truck Game and Candyland with my 3-1/2 and 2-1/2 year olds...... I think my brain is turning to oatmeal.

But playing games with 'em *is* fun, I must admit.

Actually the last time we were played a game at our friends house we played strip poker. Now mind you not only do I hate playing cards but I am also not good at them. But that another story.
My GF is only slightly better than me but she was pretty much naked except for a pizza box. Well the daughter of the couple who's house we were at came down and saw us playing. No a big deal but the thing is my GF has her as a student now....

balderdash (where you make up words; it's better than it sounds) is good, if you are playing w/ people who have a wide vocabulary.
