Catchphrase, the game.

A family game of CatchPhrase in the Ack!Thbbbt! house goes something like this:

Me:  Daytona Beach contest.
Younger Son:  What?
Elder Son:  Huh?
Husband:  Wet t-shirt?
Me:  Yes!

Elder Son:  That weapon on Battlefield you like.
Me:  Uh...
Husband:  Which battle?
Younger Son:  Bazooka!
Elder Son:  Yes!
Me:  Why didn't you just say "gum with the cartoon in the wrapper"?

But, after a while, it lacks challenge.  Eventually, someone suggests we can only give one-word clues.

Younger Son fancies himself an amateur psychic. So, when he gives the clue "clear", and I guess "glass" correctly, he nods knowingly because he sent the message to me more than I read it from him.  Uh-huh.

On The Husband's turn, the word "donkey" is what he needs to make us guess.  Thinking he's funny, his clue is "ass".

Younger Son:  Donkey
Me:  Kisser
Elder Son:  Hole

After The Husband and I stop laughing and wipe tears from our eyes, we pack the game away knowing we could never again play a better round of CatchPhrase.  Ever.
