That image was kindly provided by our own Snork. Although it’s mean and green and My Little Cthulu means something to someone, I never read C.S. Lewis’ “Chronicles of Narnia.” any of H.P. Lovecraft’s stuff.
Years ago, our daughters Bunkessa and Bunkarina opted out of the little plastic foofoo horses with pink hairy foreheads, manes and tails and wisely chose the path of barbering Barbies before they came up with the traditional game of BarbieBall.
BarbieBall is a lot like Hackysack, except with goals. It’s traditionally played sitting down in a narrow hallway with the bathroom and bedroom doors closed, and you have to wear socks with animals on them. That’s really all you need to know about the game as it’s self explanatory once the game starts. You can use hands and feet to attack or to protect your goal. Oh, almost forgot. You have to remove the rubber Barbiehead from her torso prior to play.
[Note: there are NO bathroom breaks allowed during play, otherwise it’s a forfeit for the player who gives into the pressure of the bladder. This makes it a physical game as well as a psychological one.]
After all, when you’re a jet you’re a jet all the way, so let’s have an Overnight Open Thread instead.
