Kittoe House (Random) Games

Here is a typical dialogue that is likely to ensue on a typical weekend night--note that Sunday night is considered a weekend night at Kittoe House:

Hanlin (or Bob or Chris): hey, you wanna come hang out at Kittoe?
Potential guest: sure, what will we do?
Hanlin (or Bob or Chris): I dunno. Just come.

And people really do come. So what really happens on these strange nights when people tend to stay around until 1-2am in the morning? Other than the mysterious TP of Bob's room, the culprit of which remains unknown, here are some typical events that tend to take place:

1) Random outbursts of laughter: these occur more frequently and more loudly as the night progresses. By midnight, people tend to crack up randomly with little or no impetus at all.

2) Video game watching: this usually takes the form of my playing some old game that I've already beaten several times, and all the other people staring the teevee, mesmerized by its effects.

3) Random games that the guys will create for fun:
a) Chris tries to be Gambit and throws cards across the living room using his fingers as the catapult.
b) Chris and Bob throw or bounce a ball back and forth. This event take place on one or more form, usually involving one of the guys sitting cross-legged or lying flat on the ground.
c) Everyone loves to shoot the mini-ball hoop.
d) Other random things.

Here are a couple of pictures from a recent such random "entertaining" night. Actually, it was just a few moments ago:


Here was Chris bouncing a ball off the coffee table, intending it for Bob.



Here was Bob after his classic basketball throw. The ball had already reached Chris's hand before the shutter went off on this photo. Shally was entertaining herself by rolling the abs-workout wheels off her knees and onto the ground in front of her.

If you were to ask us if we were bored, we would deny it vehemently and assert that we were actually being entertained. Amazing!
