My 19-year-old nephew came over today for Easter dinner. It turns out we are playing the same game… it is called: Clash of Clans. I play it on my ipad, he plays it on his smart phone. When he found out I was playing it too, he gave me one of those smug smiles that only guys of that age can give, and started telling me how awesome his village is and how many trophies he has and so on.
He has been playing computer games since he was little. His dad is a hardcore gamer. And kids these days are just good at these games. But it turns out that I have been playing this one a lot longer, and my village kicks his village’s ass.
Oh yeah.
He might even join my clan, and then we can chat while we wipe out other villages.
We can get let our inner barbarians out for a little pillaging.
Talk about your male bonding.
Pouring My Art Out 
Hubby used to complain about the amount of time I spent playing FB games until I got him started on them! Now he spends more time on them than I do! We often play the same games, each of us on our own laptop while the TV is on in the evenings.
the family that slays together stays together
LOVE
YAY
“…and my village kicks his village’s ass”. I laughed hard at that.
…and my village kicks his village’s ass. – I laughed hard at this.
It sounded like I attacked him… I just meant my village was much farther along… but he acted like I attacked him… he moped around for an hour… it was awesome.
I took it to mean that your village was superior in every way. And that he was almost crushed to find that out.
That is exactly it.
That is either the geekiest or the most bloodthirsty male bonding I have ever seen. What happened to throwing a baseball around???????
I taught his brother how to catch when he was little
Oh man! can’t tell you how happy I am that your village kicked his village’s ass! Of course had it been the other way around you didn’t have to share, but yeah, it is good to know that youth hasn’t surpassed age and trechery yet…
I struck a blow for old people everywhere!
I’ve heard that about you…
what does that mean?
dont strike old people! that isn’t very nice!
not AT old people
Guest. POOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!
who?
Is he yelling at me or you?? Cause I emailed him per his request on Saturday or Sunday..
he says you didn’t
he needs to look. I did. perhaps in his spam? I copied a girlfriend who wanted to read it and she got it.
I copied a girlfriend once… but the copier ran out of toner
did you ever zerox your naked butt??
no
me either. Who wants to see that?!
I am not involved in this
He got my snow jokes when we were living in a winter wonderland and you were posting flower pictures…..but he almost didn’t look cause he didn’t know they were from me…. so he deleted my recent email?! Just tossed the guest post right into the garbage without even reading it? How rude! Not really, I told him he didn’t have to post it if he didn’t want to or didn’t like it…
He didn’t find it, so how could he not like it?
so how do I help him find it??
how should I know???
what? You just gonna string out your favorite minion with a “how should I know?”
I can barely keep track of my own blog
he got it 😀
maybe
OMG!!
stop stalling
I sent it! Are you looking for a sneak peek??
no… just stirring up the pot…
I can’t help it if he didn’t like it and tossed it away….
I’m sure that isn’t it
Seriously, I am running out of things to write about. Let me steal your words!
we all use the same words
You can’t steal them if they have been given to you…
I could try selling them… oh wait… I am selling my words…
I want to buy them too, but I want SIGNED copies! Don’t you have boxes of them in the garage?? I will mail you a check and when you get it you mail me my personalized signed copies!! See?? I am not even demanding you deliver them in person any more!
not them, those. those words you are selling. “Them words” isn’t correct. Those words.
use the right words to describe my words, dang it!
I can totally do that
so I email you then??
no… that isn’t what I meant
Male bonding. “And in the beginning there was pillaging. And the men rejoiced and bonded”.
I like the look of the characters kind of like that Koodo character. I love him.
It is an amusing little game.
