Top 5 Funny Gifts - Kyle's picks


I asked our staff to pick out their top 5 funniest gifts in the store. Here are Kyle's picks in no particular order.

1. Nunzilla -It's a bird, it's a plane... no it is NUNZILLA, the walking, mouth sparking, plastic nun toy. Mouth sparks (really!).

2. Zing! - launch your lunch. The best tool for your next food fight. Bend it back and bam... this spoon makes food fly.

3. Just Like Dad! Candy Cigarettes - Kid's do love to imitate Dad. This really brings that idea home.

4. Fingerstache - temporary mustache tatoos for you fingers. Makes a great instant disguise.

5. Gobo Puppet - Gobo is a character from fraggle rock. He certainly is a funny looking guy!

Game Spot: Gotcha Party Game

We had a lot of laughs playing this game at our last staff meeting. Gotcha is a party game for 3-8 players. The rules are fairly simple, but following them is another story. Each player is dealt a few cards and the rules are set initially. Players are trying to follow the rules and at the same time trying to catch their friends breaking the rules. It gets tricky because the rules keep changing. Rules might includes things like all females have to use their last name before speaking. Or all people wearing socks have to use finger quotes before speaking. Or all people with red on have to play the air guitar before playing a card. With the rules always changing, someone is bound to get confused. When a player breaks a rule you hit the gotcha button and you move ahead while they move back. The first person to the finish line wins.

Because players can place a new rule during their turn, players can change a rule they don't like or add a rule they do like. We were picking on Kyle this time. "Players with facial hair must use air quotes", "males must not speak unless it is their turn". (I wonder if they have a players with dreads card?).

We give this game a thumbs up for a fun game that will add a few laughs to your evening. The game is easy to learn and easy to play (if you can follow the rules). Play time might last anywhere from 15 minutes to 30
