“i’m sorry, my thoughts were too loud for me to hear you over them…”
I can help you make the voices stop. Join me.
The methylphenidate was helping, but since my psychiatrist retired I’m still on the waiting list for a new one who can actually prescribe and i’ve run out ;_;
“Hmm ok, I think I’d understand better if I could watch you play a few rounds”
“That’s Numberwang!”

Yo how do you get the old YouTube shortened links?
I used the share function on ReVanced, must be functionality from the app.
I use ReVanced too, perhaps a newer version. Recently the Share links changed, they no longer use the youtu.be shortener.
Please be Prozd please be Prozd please be Prozd… Yes!
I just ask them to start playing and learn as I go. Lot easier that way.
Then you get bored and don’t actually learn anything… Or maybe that’s just me.
This combined with some reason all the rooms lights are on and at full blast. There is no air flow not even a breeze and you expected to remember every little thing. If you ask a question you get a grin and condescending attitude.
Numa numa yay
The best card games have the rules and attributes stated on each card, preferably with a cool picture and blurb of flavor text.
Reading the card, explains the card.
Enter textless Cryptic Command.
In that case, my opponent could probably tell me that I had to play the rest of the game doing a headstand and I wouldn’t know enough to say otherwise.
I prefer to be the one reading the rules and showing others after i got the basics. Youtube is also a great help for learning almost any board game.
teaching other people is one of the best ways to learn
Got my far in uni, having a few friends who didn’t listen during lectures made it easy
Stift!
Is this why I hate card games?
Yes. Yes it is.
You see, in poker you have to…
…
…do you get it now?
Waking up to a 100+ messages explaining Magic rules and lore and trying to read it without letting my eyes glaze the text challenge level impossible.
Waking up to a 2 part text message just to only read the first and last sentence and try to make an educated guess on what i could answer
You get it.
Me - I understand all the words you just used, but not in this context.
Boyfriend is a huge board gaming nerd. He’s a very patient person lol.
That’s me when I’d play board games with friends. Then we’d play through the game and I’d learn as we played and get an okay grasp of strategy, but they had so many board games that we’d just move onto the next board game and the process starts all over again.
Jokes on you! I’m hyper-focusing on that shit. Card games and board games are my jam.
