Who else hates playing games at wedding or baby showers?
I cringe when I get an invitation for a wedding or baby shower because then I'm obligated to play some stupid game like wrapping up each other in toilet paper, guessing the contents inside a jar of baby food, or having to remember items on a tray.
Can't women have a nice luncheon follwed by watching the bride open up gifts for an hour without having to have some stupid planned activity like playing the bell game?
It has absolutely nothing to do with being a good guest. I can slap a stupid grin on my face and play some inane game with everyone else. I take one for the team.
I read topics here like "what game should we play at the shower?" How about none? That's my answer.
How about being a good host and not including an stupid planned activity that half of your guests find to be annoying? If I were a guest, I would much rather spend that time enjoying pleasant conversation than seeing how much or little the bride knows about the groom.
Oooh, ME!!!! I absolutely LOATHE those ridiculous games. Every time I get an invite to a shower, all I can think of is "what kind of excuse can I make so I don't have to go and make a dress out of toilet paper?" Baby showers are even worse. The last one I was at had this really gross game where someone had smeared five different kinds of candy bars in five different diapers and we all had to guess by texture and smell which candy bars were which. I know it was just chocolate, but it made me want to hurl all the same!! Curiously, in all the "co-ed" showers I've attended, the men seemed to be exempt from these ridiculous games. Here I am smelling a Kit Kat-smeared diaper and my fiance gets to just chill in the den with a cocktail. SO UNFAIR!!!

Talking Book $6.32 The two No. 1 hits from this 1972 album perfectly illustrate the contrasting sides of Wonder's complex personality. "Superstition" is a strong rocker, a paranoid bit of wah-wah guitar funk that's as persistent as the best punk music; the opening track, "You Are the Sunshine of My Life," is a pure love song that would sound corny coming from any other voice. A hint of bitterness, perhaps owing to W... |

With the bar set so high from the first season, a sophomore slump could be expected, but, apart from a game Julia Roberts, only the hour-long episode raised the question whether success would spoil Friends.
