Adults who play board games
Board games are chill idk what you're talking about
I think the cult has found me
Indeed, we can triangulate your position with dark magic, jumanji style.
Its like a game of Ludo when everybody is chasing you and breathing down your neck.
Great fun. Ludo, that is.
Wrong. They actually have to invite me to be considered a cult. 😩
The cult of scheduling conflicts and never having time to meet up :(
My parents used to get together with another couple almost every weekend and sit down and either play sequence, rummy, hand & foot or something along those lines. Easy way to sit down once a week, have a drink or two and just talk with your friends, no TVs, phones or etc were ever on.
Wish I lived near a friend group that was able to do that. They started hanging out doing similar around 1980 and kept it up till 2017 or so. (Was the same 2 friends, they both moved 1200 miles across the country) and made sure they lived a few blocks away during that time.
i love board games but the games that board game adults play are usually spectacularly overdesigned monstrosities that absolutely suck to play.
