The Way You Play "Draw Something"

Look at me, posting two days in a row! I'm proud. Hopefully I don't jinx myself. 

I recently got Draw Something and I'm fucking obsessed with it. It's so fun. Matter of fact, I invite you to play me. My username is Nishin.

But let me tell you something. A lot of people who play this game don't understand it. I play with a lot of randoms and I think a lot of them think the game is called "Write Something". It's not.

The premise of the game is that you choose a word, then you have to draw something (imagine that) that represents that word, and the other person has to guess what it is. Like charades. 

Let's say you choose to draw "elephant". This is what you should do:

The written part is what the other person (hopefully) guesses.

This is what a lot of the randoms I play with do:

There's never enough space to write something because the game is NOT CALLED WRITE SOMETHING.

And that's not the fucking point of the game.

The other thing about this game is that I believe some of the people playing it are from non-English speaking countries and are playing it in English anyway. The only problem with this is that the game, being that it's a North American game, is very North America-centric. If you're not from North America... you're not going to understand some of the things. For example, I drew this for this one random who I believe is from a Spanish-speaking country:

His name is Maxwell and he likes corn.

And he had no idea what it was, couldn't guess it, and then told me "that was really hard". And I thought, that wasn't hard, you just obviously have no idea what a fucking raccoon is. (The drawing was of a raccoon, by the way.) But I didn't say that because it's a policy of mine not to piss off people that don't know what raccoons are.

Anyway (I just misplaced my fingers when I went to type that and they produced "Zsnyqay", which I think would be a cool intergalactic race), that's all I had to say. Next post will be The BS 5. It's a good one.

Peace.

The "Fuck Your _____" Game

I invented a new game.

You see, these past few weeks I've spent most of my time enveloped in a bitter aura of rage and hatred. The result of all this negative energy is what I have dubbed "The 'Fuck Your _____' Game". (As in "Fuck Your Blank") Here are the rules:

1. You must play with at least one other person.

2. The other people playing must have a knowledge of the people who are about to referenced in the "Fuck Your ____" construction.

3. The object of the game is to score ten points.

4. Points are gained by correctly guessing who is being referenced. Incorrect guesses lose you a point.


Now, those are the basic rules. The real meat and bones of the game, however, is the "_____" part. That "_____" is filled in by a personality trait or other characteristic of any person that you and the other people playing know. Obviously, this trait should be something glaringly (and annoyingly) apparent.

For example, let's say the subject is Owen Wilson. I would say something like "Fuck your broken-ass looking nose". If you guessed "Tom Cruise", you'd be wrong. You would then lose a point. If, however, you did indeed say "Owen Wilson", then you'd be totally right! And you would gain a point. Go you.


Now, you try. I'll wait.

...

Good. You're getting the hang of it.

To make the game a bit easier, you should probably give some context of the person you're victimizing. For instance, if you're playing with coworkers, say, "This person works with us". If you want to play strictly with celebrities, say "This person is a celebrity".

So, I'm going to leave you with an example. It's another celebrity, for simplicity's sake.

Fuck your Ra Ra Ras.

Happy playing.
