the ascii fish

i had a couple ideas for some games a little while ago. i thought i should write them down before i forget.

the first one is called 'recite the dictionary'. it can be easily turned into a drinking game. i had the idea a few nights ago when i was out drinking with a few friends and spotted another group of people that we're posing to look cool. they were doing an OK job of this by most people's standards I would imagine, but i personally thought it looked like they could use more fun. they were standing around looking bored, and afflicted so i thought, 'hey, they could use a game...i bet you can't recite the headings of the dictionary!'. nobody really can when you think about it. but it would be fun to try. you have to recite alphabetically every word that would appear in a dictionary (you can leave out definitions, and grammar information) and if you miss a word or 3 you can't go back. i suppose it could be a drinking game if you want - a shot for each word you miss. that would be brutal. brutally fun! obviously someone would have to have a dictionary to follow along with.

i can't remember the other game, so i'll leave it out for now.
