A horrible, wonderful game

September 26, 2012

The problem when writing this joke came not from finding hilarious combinations of cards in the Cards Against Humanity deck. Finding fall-of-your-chair-laughing cards in this deck is all too easy.

No, my challenge was in finding cards PG enough to go in the comic. It’s a raunchy, raunchy game. And that’s what makes it delightful.

You could tell, at Gen Con, who had managed to get their hands on a copy of the game because they were the ones hidden away in corners, occasionally checking to see if any children or any of the easily-offended were around, and then bursting into laughter and saying things like ‘ooooh…. wow, yikes!’
