Well, on the bright site the donors got more for their money than the liberals who gave money to Jill Stein for the recount.

Cards against humanity is a funny game. And you can make your own cards too. For adults only. Bawdy to say the least.

How funny.

Just a few minutes ago, my son told me that the hole countdown timer was showing 90 seconds left. So, together, we watched the last minute of hole digging and then the excavator and dump truck operators parked and left their vehicles.

No, we did not donate. Most of the donations were less than $5.

Symbolic of the CGI.

Saying Cards Against Humanity is bawdy is like saying Helen Thomas fell a bit short on the attractive scale.

I’ll be nice and not post a picture or a vile Card quote.

[Pollster1]

They still got more for their money than Hillary’s donors.

LOL, best animated gif ever.

There’s dirt in that hole. It’s not getting out by itself.

[aimhigh]

There's a hole in the bottom of the sea,
There's a hole in the bottom of the sea;
There's a hole ...
There's a hole ...
There's a hole in the bottom of the sea.

There's a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea,
There's a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea;
There's a hole ...
There's a hole ...
There's a hole in the bottom of the sea.

There's a branch on the log in the hole in the bottom of the sea ...

The more complicated version of "99 bottles of beer on the wall" ...

How many drinks do you have to take before you get to the end of that song?

[BlueLancer]

"How many drinks do you have to take before you get to the end of that song?"

Well, it depends on how knowledgeable you are in particle physics. Let's see, going down: hole, log, branch, twig, frog, wart, hair, amoeba, molecule, atom, proton, quark ... etc, etc, etc ...

It's not so much that it's longer, but, by the time you get down to the atom, after all of the drinks that you have taken, it's kind of hard to remember the pattern ... and then, again, you really don't care ...

College band tour found us singing, Hole in the Bottom of the Sea. Thanks for the memory.

[BlueLancer]

"College band tour found us singing, Hole in the Bottom of the Sea."

Strange, but that's the last time I actually remember singing the whole thing as well ...

I’ve played this game twice.

The first time was with a group of upscale millenials in professional jobs. I won the game easily- my years of
additional living and reading had honed my sense of sarcasm and bitter humor.

The second time was with a younger, less sophisticated group. Their humor was juvenile at best, and I was disgusted enough that I left the game after a few rounds.

I probably won’t play again.
