I don't think I've ever played Uno, is it really that popular?
You have NEVER played?! I feel like UNO is the game we played during summers at my grandparent's with all the cousins.
Yeah, if I did play I was too young to remember doing so. I've seen the deck in other peoples houses but I don't have a conscious memory of anyone ever playing it.

We are collectors of games, we definitely have it but my family is full of a bunch of dicks and weirdos so we haven't played it since Kyle has been old enough to play more mature games. We play Exploding Kittens, Cards Against Humanity and Trivial Pursuit. I actually collect the old school Trivial Pursuits and have almost every version that was released (I know I am a nerd). I am secretly hoping that Kyle gets me Unstable Unicorns for Mother's Day also.

I wish my family was more like that growing up. I was an oops baby, a lot younger than my siblings, so it was always hard to find someone willing to play candyland or whatever with me.

My little sister was the same. She is 11 years younger than me. I basically raised her until I moved out (and back in and out again) permanently and they moved to Florida in 2002. I whooped her good and did play Candyland with her. I think that is why when she comes into town we have a huge game night. I was the baby until she was born. There are 5 of us, my oldest sister is 8 years older than me.

I don't remember what "White Men Can't Jump" was about. I'm pretty sure Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson were basketball players but they definitely weren't professionals. I remember one of them having a conversation with his girlfriend about a glass of water and how it's important to listen but not try to fix every problem. I remember the conversation about "hearing" Jimi Hendrix vs "listening" to Jimi Hendrix. Like I remember these scenes and am surprised at how often I think about them but I don't remember like what they were doing.
i'm assuming Woody Harrelson maybe like dunks at the end? maybe to win some big game but since they weren't professional basketball players i don't know what made the game big. or maybe somebody got shot?

It’s kind of like Pulp Fiction, but with basketball. And Rosie Perez kicks ass on Jeopardy. One of her responses is, “What is a quince?”

When I was a kid, one of my friends and I used to play UNO through the bathroom door because Uno is usually no fun with two people. No idea why we used the bathroom door instead of my bedroom.

Josh and I are working our way through the Baby Boomer edition. That shit is hard except when the answer is Nixon or the Beatles, which is often.

They're so hard. We currently have: (Original old school boxes) Genius edition Young players edition The 1980's (Newer metal packaging) Totally 80s 90s time capsule edition Millennium 2000s (they changed the whole format and it's dumb) Lord of the Rings trilogy edition
I'm always at estate sales and the thrift store looking for the missing originals. Silver screen, all-star sports and baby boomer.

We got the baby boomer one at a thrift shop. I’d offer to send it to you when we’re done with it, but we marked up all the cards to keep track of which questions we’ve already answered. They’re all still readable, they just have xes or check marks next to them.

going to be really upset when I look this up and it isn't a picture of Judas Priest.

I appreciate it, but it's all about the hunt really. If I give up and the offer still stands we'll discuss more at that time.
Unless something drastically unforeseen happens, after my last class tomorrow I will have completed my first semester of college with a 4.0. Killin' it.

While not in the official rules, did you guys play Monopoly by putting the taxes/fees that were paid under Free Parking and then whoever lands there gets the money?

That’s how we always played. I didn’t realize it wasn’t in the rules until I was like 22.

It makes the game last forever. There were also some other rules I learned about later in life about auctioning the properties if the person who landed on it didn't want to buy it for full price. There's a lot of things that extend the game and make it last super long without being part of the actual rules lol
Don't you do the parenthesis ones first? That would make it 1. I don't math anymore. I know it's either 9 or 1 but I think it is 1, but snowman got me second guessing myself since he maths.

It is 9.
Multiplication and division are interchangeable in terms of order, and you work left to right. I think some people, myself included, psychologically just want to multiply/distribute the 2 after doing the addition inside the parentheses. Or they view it as a fraction, like 6 over the rest. But yeah, it's 9.

You do what’s inside the parentheses first, but then you do the division and multiplication left to right. So you dive 6 by 2, and then multiply that by the 3 that’s in the parentheses.
