Monday, 29 December 2003 | Game

It's a game in which you try to make your partner say a certain word without saying a provided list of associated words. For example, if the word were "Darth Vader," you might not be able to use the following words in your description: Luke Skywalker, Star Wars, Empire, Jedi, Anakin. Playing this game with three different generations can be problematic, but perhaps in some way it's better than playing with the same-brained.

Me: He's a character in a series of movies directed by George Lucas... The films take place in outer space... He's evil, and he breathes really heavy... He wears a mask and wears all black...

My grandmother: Johnny Cash...?
