I grew up doing The NY Times crossword puzzle. I loved both Scrabble & Boggle. A love of word games runs in the family. And we’re good at it. Mom still does the Sunday Times crossword every week, at nearly 90.
In college, the campus weekly newspaper awarded a gift card to the first person to hand in a completed solution. After my 6th win my freshman year, they stopped letting me enter. Now I thought I was good, until my sister brought home her then fiancé. Over a friendly game of boggle (the big version), I was impressed I found dentists, until my now brother-in-law countered with orthodontist.
A decade ago I discovered the Words with Friends app for my iPhone2, and it was love at first sight. Scrabble on the go. I wound up playing a fair number of folks I knew from LiveJournal, which meant many were other gay men. A disproportionate number were other redheaded, gay men, for some strange reason, but guys if you’re reading this, you know who you are.
What words do they drop on me?
Raw. Ram. Rump. Hard. Orgasm. Thrust. Lube. Tryst. Erect. Wad.
I guess this now feels like Words with Friends - with Benefits!
