I went to a game night last week. A man there could not get the hang of Taboo. The hostess explained the rules clearly to us. When he read the card, he could not keep from saying one of the words on the card. So, he kept getting buzzed. He asked if he could point to his body parts, use gestures, say it "rhymes with this word", or "starts with this letter"...Those were all against the rules. So, we declined those requests. I told him Taboo is a challenge if you have never played it before. He needed to do a quick study of the words on the card and use his imagination. He got mad and didn't want to play it anymore, unless we modified it. So, he left early. This man has a Masters Degree from UCLA and works as a professional. Was he....
