FYI! I'm not a perv! I just google image searched the word scrabble and this came up! Ha! Sorry in advance if I offend anyone, but this picture is priceless!Words. How would we live without them? Would it be possible to change the way we all communicate and eliminate words from our life? Words are such an overlooked aspect of our everyday, that even I, an english and literature nerd, failed to recognize the overlooked importance of words until I played Scrabble last night. If there is any game that relates to everyday life, it is Scrabble. No matter one's vocabulary skills and strengths, anybody who knows how to read can play Scrabble. Although it is to the player's advantage if they have an extensive vocabulary, the game process of placing the wooden letters on the board to form words is possible for a first grader, or a college grad.
I have a friend who I play the game with quite frequently. Sometimes we make up our own rules to allow slang, foreign language, or sometimes we play "dirty word" scrabble. Any way you play the game, whether you are following the directions to a tee, or making up your own rules, you are still playing a game that relates to our everyday life. It cannot be argued that words are a significant part of our life, and my favorite game, Scrabble, displays one of the most important aspects of the everyday.

OMG! Who would've thought Scrabble and Nude Beach. Shocking! However, it is such an "everyday" thing to some. Love it.
