Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

Breaking - Conservative electoral strategy leaked on Tumblr!

So if this is of interest to anyone here, I strongly recommend getting the Snake Oil card game. The basic premise is you have one player (the potential buyer) pick a profession card, then the other players choose from two word cards in their hands, and have 60 seconds to sell it to the potential buyer. Potential buyer chooses winner, and a new player becomes the potential buyer.

For added twist, I like to have a questions phase where the sellers get to attack each others' products. Truly a blast, especially if there's a bit of drinking going on

That sounds like a lot of fun

At first I thought this was sarcasm (well, it probably still is), but... these might actually be fun.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fun : 6, 21, 14.

6 + 14 = 20.

20 < 21. 21

Fun is 3 letters.

21 / 3 = 7

Sarcasm = 7 letters

Sarcasm = Fun.

Illuminati confirmed.

Nice...math doesn't work out, fudge the math to make it fit the conspiracy. I give it a 5/7...

Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve seen a perfect score in the wild!

I've always wanted to have PowerPoint parties where everyone creates a short presentation or pitch on something. I don't know how to ask my friends to do homework when everyone is 30+ though lol

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

there's a jackbox party game you can get in this style. much easier to get friends to play this instead of make PowerPoints lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's called patently stupid and is included in the Jackbox Party Pack 5

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

actually the one I was talking about is called talking points and it's in jackbox 7. I have to check out the one you are talking about though cause I LOVE talking points lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah right. Yeah, talking points is a lot more about improve and trying to wing it, meanwhile patently stupid is very much the "sell a pitch" idea. Similar, yet quite different.

Jackbox got a lot of cool game ideas

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

yeah for sure, can't wait for the next one cause I thought jackbox 9 was very disappointing

Find other autistic friends

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I’ve got a ton of autistic friends and a high suspicion that I’m autistic.

This made me laugh my ass off.

This could be a sub-lemmy for creative writers and role players.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would make for a great community

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Quick someone make it so we can all check it once a month and see nobody is posting anything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I have a draft... it's a wip... I promise

IT EXISTS

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Illuminati was pretty much Glenn Beck's schtick and it made him soooo much money

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Art Bell was around waaaay before Glenn Beck.
