Today, mom meets... Ah hell, I leave it up to you guys to figure it out.
Mom: *starts a new online scrabble game called Triceps-Scrabble*
In the Scrabble lingo, this set of rules means you can only use 3 or 7 letters in your rack to make words. No more, no less.
Idiot: I'm not really familiar with this set of rules, can you explain them to me?
Mom: Sure. You're only allowed to make words using 3 letters or a Scrabble.
Idiot: Scrabble?
Mom: A Scrabble is when you use all seven of your letters.
Idiot: OK!
Idiot makes first word... using 6 of her letters, to create a 7 letter word.
Mom: *cancels the move* That's not how it goes. You have to use either 3 or 7 letters from your rack.
Idiot: *makes new word, this time using 4 letters from her rack*
Mom: *cancels the move and PMs the idiot with a full, at length version of the rules of the game*
Idiot: *makes a new word: Fox, using an F already there and... 2 of her own letters*
Mom: *cancels the move* You mustn't make 3 or 7 letter words. What you must do is make words using 3 or 7 of the letters you have in your own rack.
Idiot: OK, I think I understand now! *makes the word... Foxes. Using... 4 of her letters!*
Mom: *cancels the move* Don't you know how to count?!
She calls me up and shows me the contents of her chat history.
Mom: What the hell is up with this?!
Me: Hmmm... Mom, congratulations. You've just met your first n00b. And lemme tell you something: you're gonna be explaining the rules to her for a very, very long time.
Mom: *chuckles and smirks* Yeah, how long?
Me: Forever. |

Forever. Or, at least until they realize it's three or seven tiles from their own rack, whichever happens first. At this pace, forever might very well do it. |

That's why I like playing Internet Backgammon. The only conversation you can have is through preset comments. If you get an idiot, they just log off. |
