This is the best party game ever conceived.

I know, I know; it's a rather bold statement. Luckily, it's also a true statement given the sheer variety and randomness associated with this game. Sure, it is a mere compilation of many previous game ideas from centuries of creativity, but the concept of creating a game that includes them all makes it the king of boardgames! Everyone has a chance at some point to stand out and appear skillful. There's always an incredibly lollerskates moment that will stay locked away in your memory for months. I cannot begin to express the gratitude I have for the makers of this game. It's a spectacular excuse to meet up with some people and have a wonderful time. Yes, I used a word as flowery as wonderful. It's just that great.

Anywho, go buy it: Cranium: Turbo Edition (http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/602-8766176-6803818?_encoding=UTF8&frombrowse=1&asin=B0001NE7V4)

On another note:

My friend sucks at spelling, so having him as my partner when forced to do team gnilleps was painful if not excruciating.

We managed to fail three of those in a row, until we finally got to a zelpuz with a catagory we could swallow.

And don't forget: go buy this, now.

It makes a great gift.

Ban yourself.

Hah, I agree; I really should.

God forbid I ever reccomend a game that I find incredibly addictive and entertaining.

Then again, it does require that you have 4 people to play it with, something difficult to handle when you kill everyone around you.

Board games can be sweet sometimes. Hard to find a decent one though, and even harder to find people willing to play.

Here's some proof that Cranium is sweet shit:

The crazies at UW-Madison appear to be playing at.

I noticed this picture as I was browsing residency halls in the manual I was sent.

Interestingly enough, this picture also had another familiar aspect: the blue shirt that guy is wearing. It seems rather similar to the one I saw Smap wearing in a picture of his.

I'd go find the picture, but I'm extremely lazy.

Proof, huh? I can find pics of people smearing poop on each other but that doesn't mean I want to play along. And there's also net pics of the hot latino game "Fuck the Burro before it Kicks you in the Cajones: Turbo Edition", it's popular with all the kids in Mexico.

Thanks for the info. :)

I don't get how, "a fucking boardgame." means anything. Is that just a statement of astonishment?

And apparently yes, I like it in the pooper because boardgames FTW.

I've played it at a friends house and it is a lot of fun. There's something everyone's good at.

I still think Risk is the king of board games though.

I never liked Risk 'cause someone would always tip the shit out of the board and fuck the whole game over.

I've never played a complete normal game of Risk. We always end up getting bored and just playing by retarded rules.
