21. BUSS OH NINE - silly scrabble

silly scrabble is a great game. basically you just make up words that are extremely hilarious, and everyone is a winner. also, you can pretty much break any of the rules of scrabble if you like.

in theory it sounds as if it would not be that fun, but best thing is that you have to provide an explanation for your word. so sure you can get away with putting down random letters and saying "a rare breed of dog with a long tail," but if you don't make them laugh then your friends will soon hate you. consequently you are forced to be creative!

here are some photos from magda.


highlights: "catdog," "ovey" and "oynae" ("oy vey" and "oy nay")


personal favourites: "imadad," "urseszy"


please note: "diytiles" (look at the "s) and "troffl" ("terribly rolling on floor fucking laughing")


these last two pictures are actually from a real game of scrabble, but they are still pretty silly. i wasn't playing, but sitting behind moriarty at the time, and every time i glanced at his letters he'd formed them into something odd, seemingly for his own amusement. here is poor old jenny, oblivious to our cruelty.
