Alright, so over the various holidays we've played
CAH (Cards Against Humanity) with a few different groups. And I have to say with
100% certainty it is
WASTED on some people. If a card asks you
"Something you do not want to find in your chicken lo mein" and your answers are
pork chops (why?!?), menstrual blood, the remains of aborted fetus', pasta with meatballs (seriously WTF?!?!), Bill Clinton playing the saxophone naked (funny-ish), a piano playing Mozart (are you even trying?!?), fingernails. What would you pick???
While I agree you probably don't want to find any of those in your
chicken lo mein, the
POINT of
CAH is to pick the funniest, most off the wall one. Why would you pick pork chops?!?!?! Why would someone play pork chops?!?!?! That isn't funny. I would have gone with
"menstrual blood" or
"the remains of aborted fetus'". I know its up to the person who picked the black card but come on...work with us here. And yes, I know sometimes you get a
$hit set of white cards but
TRY.
Another one was
"why can't I sleep at night", I don't remember all the white cards exactly but ... Date Rape, sparkledogs, black people, something about the degradation of the white race, Incest, something about Pac-man, and cum, or The primal ball slapping sex your parents are having right now. They picked
SPARKLEDOGS. Are you
f**king kidding me?!?!!? There are so many better options!!!!
The
ENTIRE game was like that on separate occasions with different groups. It was like they were
SCARED to be offensive. It is supposed to be
OFFENSIVE!!!! Apparently I don't know many
"horrible people". So everyone got
"bored". Of course you got bored. You have to at least
ATTEMPT to make it
WRONG. The game is only as
funny/fun as the people playing.
I tried so hard. I played the most
awful/disgusting/disturbing white cards I could. Of course I didn't have a
"good one" every time but I did try and my card was only ever picked by one of the two or three other players who
CLEARLY understood the point was to be
WRONG. Thank God for Menstrual Rage
(yay I won one!!!), now filed under things I never thought I would say.
