Bahh!!
DH does this to me, along with various other games which I lose :o
One of them consists of making a circle with thumb and forefinger and holding it down against your leg. As soon as the other person looks at it, they've lost. You can't hold it above waist level or draw attention to it.
I always lose. It's a good job I like him.

ZillionChocolate · 15/07/2011 20:45

I can't believe you just made me lose the game.

LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 20:46

Ooooh - I like that one! Might have to implement it in the Flump household!

HOW have I never heard of this?! I belong to a "secret drinks club" and shall be implementing this (as chairperson ) forthwith.

I can't imagine myself NOT thinking about it every five minutes though. Or does it get easier?

LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 21:49

It gets easier, trust me. It's only occasionally that the word "game" associates itself in your mind with "The Game" Personally, I make it my mission to remind people via Facebook every so often...

Arrgghhh, missing full stop between "The Game" and Personally.

I've lost a game I didn't even know existed, typical Sad

(Grin twat)

OH FFS! NOT YOU TOO!

dp has been banging on about this for ages. i am NOT playing the fucking game

but i am about to go outside and tell him he's lost it

or i might just show him this

madeupstuff · 15/07/2011 21:56

Thanks for that. You didn't even go outside though, did you? No. you IM'd me. thanks.

TigBits · 15/07/2011 21:56

Shock Dammit! Now i will just have to inform the whole of my Facebook that they have lost 'The game' out of spite.

shakey1500 · 15/07/2011 21:58

Lady just been reading up on it. How did YOU lose tonight? And are you subscribing to the theory that the whole thing ends when the PM says so?

Such fun!

AgentZigzag · 15/07/2011 21:58

Doesn't you posting about it mean you're the one who's lost because you thought about it first?

AgentZigzag · 15/07/2011 22:00

Ahh, you've admitted that in the title, duh Grin

shakey1500 · 15/07/2011 22:00

agent yes but because Lady posted it here whoever read it will also read "The game" therefore think about it, therefore lose also.

I think...

thisisyesterday · 15/07/2011 22:01

you're welcome!

LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 22:04

Shakey and AgentZigzag - Not overly sure how I lost, DF said "Oh DS wants to play" and it just popped backed into my head somehow. I am following the rules by announcing that I have lost, just doing it in a way that means I get to take as many of you fuckers down with me as possible! Grin

It's really cheering me up as well!

OP posts:
LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 22:05

Shakey - Yes, I like that ending!

QueeferSutherland · 15/07/2011 22:07

I knew someone who did that circley thing with their fingers but never understood it until now!

shakey1500 · 15/07/2011 22:08
LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 22:12

Ooooh Shakey1500, you are going daahhhnnnnnn as they say round my way!

Actually, they say "Oooh er me love, you is going down you is. Where's moi coider to?" as I'm from the shire of Dorset but that doesn't sound half as threatening! Grin

OP posts:
AgentZigzag · 15/07/2011 22:12

Sooo...hehe, a new game starts for a person when they forget about it, but you can't say when that is because if you think about it you've lost again...?

LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 22:13

Yup, AgentZigzag - pure, simple, evil genius isn't it?

OP posts:
thisisyesterday · 15/07/2011 22:14

that sounds like a different kind of going down to me lady! Confused

LadyFlumpalot · 15/07/2011 22:21

Grin thisisyesterday - It does rather, doesn't it?!? Although that would be something like "Oooh er moi love, gobble moi cock!"
