I'm kinda on his side with this scrap paper thing. Spend the scrap paper, then get the dry eraser. Just throwing usable stuff away is a no-no.
  8:09pm
JakeGould:

Tall and thin? Is that like Sarah Plain and Tall?
  8:09pm
JakeGould:

Dry erase is toxic. Scrap paper can be recycled to make more paper.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:11pm
Caryn:

Well, use the scrap paper and then get a notepad. The main point is, use up the scrap paper, don't just chuck it without using it.

harry:

every week when the magnets get mentioned its very suspenseful

does it cost to call in?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:16pm

Greg gave the best answer!

Caryn:

If the Ouija board comes up (since that was originally a Parker Bros. board game), the easiest answer would be "make it actually work".

JakeGould:

Women and children, PLEASE CALL THE SHOW!

UCBer:

Ha! So funny Jo!

Ooo! Scrabble idea! You can play any letter of your name, but if you loose all the letters of your name you loose your identity and become the property of the game owner!

In fiction, a MacGuffin (sometimes McGuffin or maguffin) is a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or other motivator that the protagonist pursues, often with little or no narrative explanation.

Ken From Hyde Park:

Scrabble would include a spinner that tells you that your word must be a noun, verb, adjective, etc.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:32pm
Caryn:

The Ark of the Covenant is not a MacGuffin, because it is actually central to the plot, not something they supposedly hunt that ends up not being significant.
  8:33pm
JakeGould:

Officer Krupke!
  8:36pm

“Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq” were a McGuffin.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:41pm
Caryn:

The money Marion Crane steals in "Psycho" was a MacGuffin.
  8:41pm
Travis Love:

I already vote for Dr. Gumshoe I'm upset bc I really wanna play it!
  8:42pm
JakeGould:

The stone in “Stone Soup” is a disgusting McGuffin.
  8:43pm
harry:

The christmas in home alone is a macguffin
  8:44pm
JakeGould:

Jesus in the bible is a McGuffin.

Ken From Hyde Park:

How many McGuffins were in "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World"?
  8:46pm
JakeGould:

@Ken: Just the main McGuffin. Also, I miss the McDLT.

harry:

Senor Boomerang de Amarillo -gimmick- has terrible knees but strong kicks
  8:47pm
JakeGould:

Golden Retrieve: “Golden Showers” Signature move? Pins opponents to the floor and pees all over them.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:47pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

How about this: George W. Bush as a McGuffin in American history?
  8:48pm
JakeGould:

Corgi… Name: “Senor Stubby Stabber!” Signature move? The boots on it’s tiny legs all have switchblades in them so it hops in the air, all four blades come out and stab the opponent.
  8:49pm
harry:

Must Love Dogs is a great movie
  8:49pm
JakeGould:

@harry: What is “Must Love Dogs?” A cute, Nazi decree?
  8:50pm
harry:

Do you guys think the reocurring theme of bluish hues against a fall setting in the film must love dogs represents a rebirth in gods great pool? Thoughts?
  8:50pm
JakeGould:

Bassett Hound: “Shirley Basset Hound” Move? She pins you to the ring and starts howling so mournfully—and looking at you so mournfully—you cry and beat yourself to end the match.

JakeGould:

Vote: Ruin a Board Game!

@harry: I see it more as a reference to Wagner's Ring Saga, especially Das Rheingold.
  8:54pm
JakeGould:

Vote: Worst Game Ever! (Sorry for not getting the title right. :/)
  8:55pm
harry:

@caryn: i so hear that. Evokes a specific tone lost after the initial marks of the french new wave
  8:57pm
JakeGould:

Manolo sounded soooooooo creepy right now. Take a nap, dude!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:58pm
Caryn:

@harry: I see some clear Yasujiro Ozu influences, especially in the initial meeting scenes.

Mary Wing:

I'm torn, they all had good bits. I'll vote for Poocha Libre
  8:58pm

I suck at games!
  9:01pm
harry:

@caryn: yes i so see that specifically at 1:14:03, 55:02:31, 7:41:09. Composition of frames is a mirror of that work.
