It's one of my all time favorite games, and I have fond recollections of arguments amongst friends over whether an answer was valid or not (such as whether or not 'worms' are something you can be afraid of). <br /><br />I still have a friend who insists it's possible for "asshole" to be a term of endearment, simply in defense of his one-time Scattegories answer (he didn't get the point for it...).Austin Gortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281239771248780430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-10321442906085233732011-01-10T19:25:40.060-05:002011-01-10T19:25:40.060-05:00It's the time limit with Scattergories.

I don't have enough time!"<br /><br />I played with my parents recently and my dad and I both put "Wyatt" for a boy's name while my mom got a point for "William."

Uhm, starts with a "U".<br /><br />To add insult to injury, so sorry, sorry, but <i>Flashforward</i>. Of course, having said this I feel like <i>Faust</i>. But thinking of these things at <i>Four Past Midnight</i> is kinda like a <i>Firestarter</i> to one's <i>Ficciones</i> (okay, that's sitting on the shelf next to the all important books, written by a true scholar and fan of <i>LOST</i>, namely yourself). <br /><br />Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble and all the rest of these board games are the reason we have cellphones with internet access.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474623954925835867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-43121533486224740192011-01-10T07:36:09.243-05:002011-01-10T07:36:09.243-05:00From a Great Height also slipped your mind. :(From a Great Height also slipped your mind. :(Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14785667533679432739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-30806114176746788032011-01-09T21:22:09.656-05:002011-01-09T21:22:09.656-05:00OMG, I played Scattergories on New Years, and I go...OMG, I played Scattergories on New Years, and I got F for that exact same category card!<br />And yes, I put "Freckles" under Nicknames. but I didn't put "Finding LOST", because I was playing with a lot of fans of the show & I thought they would write that, too.

And even though I can't think of ANYTHING anymore, I might have been able to come up with Finding Lost. <br /><br />Here's my story. The other day we were putting my kitchen back together after having had some new appliances put in and my husband started putting the fire extinguisher in the cabinet under the cooktop and I said to him: "What are you doing, isn't that flammable?" He just looked at me incredulously and kept about his business. Then I said..."Oh...duh." "L" on my forehead for sure.Lisa(until further notice)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-1577177967733899412011-01-09T12:13:13.737-05:002011-01-09T12:13:13.737-05:00that is sooooooo funny !!!:-)
