Whats yours like?

It's a game that one of my sister-in-laws introduced us too at a past family gathering. It is normal only the ladies that end up playing but the gentleman sometimes do play with us.  The game is fairly simple.  You wright down an object and then in one word describe (hint) what yours is like, then pass the word to the next person who describes in one word what theirs is like.  There is one person who is trying to guess what this word is.

Here is an example:

1st hint said  - Ruffled   the guesser couldn't guess the word.

2nd hint said - Metal (at this point we start laughing and asking if we should ask her husband for the key to her chastity belt because only two people have seen the word and we all think it is underwear. And ask our 1st word giver if she is really wearing ruffled undies).

Our guesser can not figure out the word.

3rd hint - White (very helpful wasn't it - yes I gave this one).  We are still laughing and I now know the word so that makes it even more funny.

4th hint - Fan   At this point we are laughing so hard tears are rolling down our faces and we can't look at each other because each time we do, we start laughing again.

Our guesser is looking at us like we are crazy (of course, so far it is all the sister-in-laws that have given the words and a twenty year old niece trying to guess the word)

5th hint - Rurrr  (noisy sound that the 1st word givers makes cause we're back to her giving a description).

My niece, I think has given up on us because we can't stop laughing and have to take a potty break.

6th hint- bright and since we were feeling sorry for her, we all look up at the ceiling.

She finally got it - Ceiling light.


Needless to say  you can have some real fun with the words.  We are suppose to be writing them down when we come up with them, so that we have a new batch of words when we next gather together. You can keep score by the number of hints they need to guess the word.

Hope you'll try this with your family and/or friends.  You can learn a lot of things you didn't know about them.

Some of the words we used are below:

Bra
First Pet
First Job
First Car
Purse
Feet
Hair
Eyes
Stove
Bed
Garage
