Dovetailing off the Oxygen Network story..
I remember several years ago when Pebbs and I were playing Pictionary with some friends. The guys were on one team and the girls on the other.
The clue was CLUTCH

The men went about drawing the stick shift and pedals in a car.
The women began drawing a purse.

The girls won--but funny how we think of the same word so differently.

What can be really funny is playing a word game with someone who forgot their glasses. We spent an entire round trying to guess the wrong word--until we figured out that my MIL misread the word.

Embarassed I'm told its really funny when you are playing wtih a kid who doesn't know the definitions of the words she's drawing too. not that I have any personal experience in this area or anything Embarassed

'My friend' Wink was about 8-10 and trying to play pictionary with all the adults in my family. I (or my friend, whatever Wink ) gets the word 'Cathedral' and being the protestant girl I am, I had no clue what that was, except that my parents had seen a choir concert at the one downtown. So I'm thinking theater or arena, right? and I'm trying to draw a stage with a singer... you should have seen my sisters busting a gut when they found out the word.... Evil or Very Mad

First Pffffff that is a cool Old School Nolan Ryan/J.R.Richard jersey avatar.

During the same game the other guy and I thought that if we would draw "pictures" of states and use their initials we could do that too.....

Example Pennsylvania (PA) and Indiana (IN)
for the word Pain.

We were limited though.

Translation--he still can't believe we won by drawing a purse...
