Society & Culture Things that Make You Feel Old Part 2, 7 years older

[Mitcham VIC 3132]

Mel C was on the ABC NYE coverage, she hasn't aged all that badly unlike the Spice Girls songs.

The sunken cheeks look is a bit Boris Karloff/1931

Random question (I also played Uno with the kids on New Years Eve)...can you double Draw 4's?

We never did, in our rules you could match Draw 2's and Skip/Reverse regardless of colour, but Draw 4 was unmatchable. (You also couldn't play Draw 4 in response to a Draw 2)

My daughter apparently played UNO at school and the rules allow you to match a Draw 4 with another Draw 4 (making next player Draw 8). What rules do others play?

Oh, and it's good to crush their spirit early....

UNOs one of those games where it seems basically every family has their own house rules, especially re: playing a card after picking up and stacking. Officially you can't stack Draw 2s or Draw 4s

The most chaotic (and therefore the most fun if everyone playing is a good sport) is allowing full stacking (i.e. you can play either a Draw 2 or a Draw 4 to extend it until someone can't)

Stacking is the only way.

We play max damage. Draw cards can go on Draw cards. Anything goes. It's the best way.

That's how we roll. Get on board or get out the way.

Getting 4 consecutive draw 4s and then putting a cheeky draw 2 down is glorious.

I was playing a new version of UNO on Xmas Day, it had draw 10s in it and you can stack them too. **** that game, i lasted about two rounds

 

[rocker_oz33]

Well my flog kids made me draw 12 at one point so it’s every man for himself as far as im concerned

Uno a bit like monopoly you need to have rules in place.

I refuse to play monopoly with my wife anymore, she’s ruthless and I end up homeless very quickly.

Nup. I last played with the wife when she was pregnant with our first and she wouldn't quit until someone won. Game went for about 4 hours. I think just slipped her a few railways and Mayfair when she wasn't looking or on here 63rd toilet break to save my sanity. Never again

How about D&D.

Reckon that song gets a bum rap because it became too successful at the time and people misinterpreting it as a lads drinking song (it's about the resilience of the working class to keep standing up after governments keep knocking them down). Heard it while listening to an old Hottest 100 (number three, definitely over-performed) and having not heard it in more than a decade, it was a perfectly ok song.

Wannabe is turgid.

I agree with you on a lot of things on many boards I see you on in BigFooty. I even agree with you about Tubthumping.

But on the last three words alone, I cannot abide.

Gralin let's ban this mofo.
