When
I wasn't riding with Cole down for a little quarter pound action I
would hang out in the hall during lunch with a group of friends that
were into much more goofy stuff. There was a pair of girlfriends who
were virginal and fun in a little sisterly way. They were always
cheerful bright and full of childish and harmless mischief. During
lunch they would be playing games and laughing and just having a good
time with effervescent bubbly giggles that were infectious and
contagious. They had a game that They played using Uno cards and a
group of kids in a circle called Spaz Uno. Everyone was seated around
a circle and dealt an equal amount of cards then one by one each
player puts down a card until a penalty card (skip, reverse, or draw
two) is played and when it is all the players race to do an action
associated with its color. For green you touch the ground for grass.
For red you touch your heart. For yellow you touch your hair, the
game favors blondes in that respect. For blue you reach for the sky.
The slowest player to do the action inherits the whole pile of cards.
If a wild is played all four actions must be completed. As is the
case with any good game the most fun is in the process and not
winning and it is very funny to watch people freak out trying to slap
themselves to save themselves from getting cards. To win you get rid
of all of your cards. I stayed friends with those girls through high
school and had lots of good clean fun except for one time.
