I don't usually play games; I don't know why.
I rebel from both board and card games, preferring to just sit around, talk, and listen to music. I don't know if it's because I think I won't be good enough and I'll be embarrassed, or if I'm just lame, but my play-time is when I bike or run or play the flute; I don't usually deal with the contrived variety.
But last night, my 5 boy cousins, ranging from age 10-16, finally wore me down with the constant refusal to accept 'Later', or even 'NO'.
So we played. We played Apples to Apples, Set, and Gobblet...and it was awesome. I had tears of laughter streaming down my face in Apples to Apples, and my brow was furrowed in concentration during Set. All three are amazing games and I want to buy them immediately and play non-stop.
So I guess maybe I'm not as old and crotchety as I pretend to be; I'm not 26 going on 80...and even if I am...who says 80 year-olds can't play?

SET is a great game...just don't get talked into UNO!
:-)
I will have to check out the other games, as I have never heard of them.
I think it's who you play with...sounds as if you have some neat cousins! :-)
And if you're really brave, there's a scrabble game waiting for you on Facebook. :0
SET is an awesome game! I love it, even though it makes my brain hurt. Glad you were able to kick back and geek it up for a night.
