Ah, the holidays. Time to gather with the relatives for some turkey, football and gift shopping. But what to do while you digest that big dinner and wait for the start of the 3rd quarter while the womenfolk stalk the best deals around town.
How about a friendly game of “Clue”? This year take the classic board game, set in a stuffy old mansion, and turn it into a modern day trip to the mall. And just like the real Black Friday experience, you’ll need weapons. Here
Do you think there really are people that do that?

It was Hillary, in the server bathroom, with Bleach-bit…
It was Bill Clinton, in the Oval Office, with a cigar…
It was Avenatti, in the sewer, with a lead pipe upside her head…
This reminds me of how I used to change clue and trivial pursuit into completely different games with my two younger siblings.
(A bit more complicated though.)
Uno is a lot more fun and less confrontational and whatever you do don’t play Risk. Some of my late wife’s 8 siblings took playing games on holidays far too seriously (along with drinking too much) and they still do with their annual family reunion cut throat croquet tournament in August. I don’t miss not going since my wife died.
Not everyone is lucky enough to marry an orphan
The old board games are classic but I fear most people have replaced them with the aloneness of ‘puter stuff
(to their loss of socializing with family).
There is no NFL allowed in my house.
God bless you all on this wonderful day!
I’ve heard the game that will put everyone at each other’s throat is “Diplomacy,” which has the players competing for who’s the best liar, cheater and all around back stabber.

I quit playing Clue when Black Friday, the maid, caught Colonel Mustard and Miss Scarlett.
In the library. With the dildo.
I’ll spare you the sordid details.

A Farrakhan from the rafters with a rope has my interest…
Vietvet, you must have the X rated version of Clue for adults only.
@geoff the aardvark: I think you might be right, because I just noticed that instead of Mrs. White and Mrs. Peacock, it has Stormy Daniels and Annie Sprinkle.
