Yeah, board games are dorky. They re also a lot of fun, and heaps more interactive than staring at the boob tube. Laze away the Sunday after a big party by breaking out a board game. Or host a game night, complete with multiple game stations and munchies galore. Award prizes if you want to encourage the competitive spirit, or keep things relaxed by ditching the board, gathering round in a circle, and playing the games without keeping score.
Players write down fake definitions to obscure words, then guess which is the real answer.
Points are scored both if you guess the right definition, and if other people pick your made-up answer. For those of us who still prefer keeping the wackiness word-oriented, you can play your own version of Balderdash, popularly referred to as Dictionary, by choosing words from any good dictionary.
