Christmas Party Games

Today is our holiday (aka Christmas) party at work. We eat, we play games, and generally have a good time.

My boss just walked into my office and asked:

"How are you at cornhole?"

My boss, who knows I'm gay, looked at my face with the wheels turning in my devious mind and quickly added... "the game... Cornhole the game..."

My response, batting my eyes seductively... "no complaints so far.."

HAHAHAHAHAHAH awesome :)

I didn't know there was a .. (or another) game called Cornhole?

LOL.. I love teasing my boss. I'd never heard of cornhole the game until I moved up to Cincinnati. I added a link to define the game (a bean bag toss game).

OK, Whats The Cornhole Game?

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.. depends on who is playing, I guess! *wink*

I added a link to define the game (a bean bag toss game).

I love how he caught himself after seeing my look. My boss and I have a good rapport. :)

well honestly... cornhole? who named that game?

[identity profile] snowboardjoe.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, that was evil and hilarious. :D

What the hell is cornhole anyway?

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Evil and hilarious are my stock in trade at work.

I added a link to the entry to define the game. It's actually a lot of fun.

ROFL... he must be a hoot

Oh we have a good time. We don't say "gay" in the office as not everyone knows, so we use "fabulous" instead.. which doesn't really hide it.

The Boss: "So what did you do this weekend?"
Me: "Oh, went to see 'Hairspray' the movie with friends.."
The Boss: "Were these Fabulous friends??"
Me: "It was 'Hairspray'! Of course they were Fabulous!"

What a fabulous relationship you have with your boss and it's fabulous that the two of you share that little fabulous secret.

He's one of the reasons I enjoy working here to be honest. He is one of those bosses you will go the extra mile for (I almost said "bend over backwards for," but figured I'd save myself the commentary...).

Roflmao! You don't even know the imagery that's running through my brain right now! ;)

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.. Ooooh... explain in big detail... :)

I had a somewhat similar situation a couple of weeks ago. A lady came into the store, approached me and another employee, and asked if we had "Cornhole"? Having never heard of this, we both did the slow, no -response, look at each other and hope the other knows what she is talking about response. She realized we had no idea what she was talking about and then went on to explain it. Since then, we must have at least one person a day asking for Cornhole.

As cute as you are, you sure they're all talking about the game that Mark's talking about? ;)

You officially made my day!!

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.. I'm glad I could help :D

[identity profile] scorpiocub.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a game called "Cornhole?"

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Read the Wikipedia entry on the game. It was supposedly created in Cincinnati and it's a lot of fun to play... especially with three or more guys! :)

Okay, you didn't help with that last part....LOL!

My boss is quite the bear and I've told him that! We're good friends in addition to being co-workers :)

I'm obviously from the wrong side of the Mason-Dixon line -- I had *never* heard of this game before. Interesting info in the Wiki entry... each inning is made up of a "top" and a "bottom"... "bag-in-the-hole"... etc. etc.

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.. you know a gay man created this game! :D

[identity profile] ui-tomcat.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Do they make t-shirts too, if so I want one.

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Apparently they do!

Oh yeah, that game is huge with college students here. I didn't realize it even had a name. I'm still getting a t-shirt though.
