(and other Vik & Tori stories)

Tori's Tales

Ok, so my kids LOVE this game and it was all the rage there for a while with the younger set (and older set too actually).  I was so damn excited to play it for the first time with my daughter and her friends a few years ago.  Imagine my surprise when I lost so badly and so did Vik, We would be like... yup, this card is a total winner and the kids would look at us like we were crazy!  I was totally not eager to play again any time soon.

Fast forward to yesterday when we're invited over to my co-workers house to watch football and out comes the game again... (I am thinking that this was one of those rare occasions when I would prefer to be watching football) but I thought - oh well..these people are more my age, and well, maybe it was a peer thing before, and then, oh why not, let's give it a whirl...

Failure A G A I N!

Not only did I totally lose the game (not one single card).  I also found my cards voted the worst answer several times.  At one sad point i shouted out..."Why is this happening?  I am the funniest person at the office!" to which everyone cracked up and I'm thinking...where were your laughs when I was playing the game assholes?

Just a few gems to illustrate my wasted talent - before I put my cards down never to be played again.

"Vin Diesel ate____________ for dinner"

My answer - Jennifer Lawrence!  (I cracked myself up...ok so i didn't have many options, it was either Jennifer Lawrence or A Gassy Antelope or A Pyramid of Severed heads...

And the one that should have won the game for me hands down:

"You awkwardly lost you virginity with ________"

My answer - Your weird brother...

Come on!  Brilliant!

Apparently not!  I suck.

Cards Against Humanity - i sort of hate you.  Back to that black and white box you go!
