When You Try To Teach Your Friends How To Play A Board Game

Board games are so much fun I've been hooked on them for most of my life and still wake up craving that cardboard BG crack every day- which is why I'm always trying to get my friends hooked on them as well.

Because board games aren't as fun when you play them alone, but it's also not very much fun to be the designated rulebook reader and rule monger either- which is why I demand my friends pay attention when I explain the game.

But as this comic by Jacob Andrews shows explaining the game to my friends almost makes me want to go in to rehab for gamers, because with friends like Dan the distracted and Mac the "wait, that doesn't make sense" guy playing board games can be a real pain!

it's also the best known rewinder of tape cassettes. apart from take decks. but it's difficult to write down phone numbers on an envelope with a tape deck.

i bit my way through a good few of them during my school days. I wonder if they have been through any changes since the original design and what the first colour was...

László Bíró invented the ballpoint ben in 1931 so I think Bic may have cleaned up financially from the idea but it'd be a big step to attribute the invention to Bich.

Actually, it was Father Mulcahy, coached by Hawkeye over the radio, that performed the tracheotomy while he and Radar were retrieving a wounded soldier from a forward aid station. Mulcahy used Radar's Tom Mix pocket knife to make the incision.

As it occured to anyone that Bic might just be the worst polluter in the world?

A Crystal Bic ballpoint pen is roughly 15cm in lenght with a diameter of 0.5cm making it around 3 cubic cm. Multiply this figure by the oh so worthy of mentioning amount of crystal bic sold (100b), and you get about 30 000 cubic meter of non-biodegradable crap! That's not to mention all the other one-time-use crap they make. Think about it the next time you draw a 3.2km line with one of these.

P.S.: For those living in one of the two countries in the world not using the metric system, use your crystal bic to make the math!
