Apples to Apples

Recently, we played Apples to Apples. Greg was the judge with the word Funny. Amusing, comic, odd. I, Heather and Cindy submitted the following.



That was odd, all right.

I believe angry hornets got the nod, on this one. Angry hornets are funny, you know. They're just about the only insects you ever see in comic strips.

There's a stack of red cards, with adjectives, and green cards with nouns. Each round a new person becomes the judge. He presents a green card to the rest of the players, who pick a red card out of their hands. A point goes to the person whose card that the judge deems matches his green card the best.

For example, the judge might present "cheesy." One player might have a card that says "pizza." Another would give his "The 1980's" card. Someone else would play "Horror movies," while the fourth would throw in his "killer whales" card, since he doesn't have one that remotely matches "cheesy" and he wants to get rid of it. The judge, being a fan of bad horror movies, awards the point to "horror movies."

In our case, it was a strange coincidence, that not only did nobody have a card that matched "funny," all three cards were violent. Of course we knew that Greg likes awarding his points to the most absurd ones, so there was hope anyway.

That game makes me laugh.

Greg actually seemed a bit creeped out by it. Odd because he likes giving the points to the most absurd cards.

Oh good heavens!

Now see, I would have had a better card than that. I would have had ...

"Jon Stewart" or

"Robin Williams"
