I'm sure he'll tell us all about how awesome the blessing of the bed went.

My niece is a Latin scholar, and she defines cool, so it's okay in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinytherese Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Apples to Apples for the Win! Some of my friends and I enjoy playing various scene it games. My best friend has the original scene it and we laughed about how there are some questions where you have to guess what movie they're referring to. "Tangos With Wild Carnivorous Dogs" hmm, Dances with Wolves. "Celestial Battles"- Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thy Geekdom Come Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Saran wrap has a 10% failure rate in preventing Scrabble pregnancies. Sometimes the letters make it through some naturally occurring pores in the wrap. Failured attempts at using wrap may also lead to dangerous letter combinations, such as VD, STD, HIV, AIDS, and unfortunate words such as "herpes." Subsequent spelling of words such as "Valtrex" will only serve to reduce symptoms and inhibits random spelling flare-ups. Aside from the technical problems with wrap, it is also immoral to enjoy the pleasure of spelling outside of it's natural Scrabble context, which produces children. Furthermore, use of celibate Scrabble by married persons withholds one's God-given gift of spelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
