let me say this, i have never claimed to be the nicest of people... so, my friends and i play this game, im sure you're aware of a version of it, it's the "that's your boyfriend" game. this game needs at least two people and can be played pretty much anytime anywhere. here's the premise, while being somewhere in public with your opponent you scan the crowd. people on the street, in passing cars, whereever is fair game... find the most unfortunate person on the street, the winners are usually drunk, or dirty, or morbidly obese or fugly, whichever your preferred brand of physical prejudice, say if your friend usually likes tall guys make sure their "boyfriend" is markedly short. anyway i think you get the point, find an unfortunate person and point and say "hey there's your boyfriend", there are pretty much unlimited options to add to the burn as well, "oh hey there's your boyfriend, i had no idea he was out of jail yet" or "hey it looks like your boyfriend finally got a job" about a homeless person, any burn will do...
so my husband and i like to play this game, well i like to play this game he usually doesnt join in, but the other day we were driving around and he points out a man on the street "hey look honey, there's your boyfriend" i was floored that he was playing so i looked and looked and i didnt see anyone that really fit the point of the game so i said "you mean that guy? he's not that bad, baby i dont think you get the point of the game", to this my husband turns to me an says "maybe i just have higher standards".... oh damn, he really got me there...im still laughing and the burn still stings just a bit...
