I am just about to finish my very first game too. However, somehow I am winning. It is making me feel insanely guilty. Like sorry I blocked all future possibilities with a three letter word just so I could get a triple letter score. I did manage to use the Q and spelled the word qua with the q on the triple letter. There it is again... guilt.

-->I love playing WWF but with people smarter than me so I have a mission to beat them, some that are about equally as smart/stupid as me and then some easy lay up opponents that I chuckle at for leaving the TW open.
I mean really.

My "best" game was playing ORGY, ANUS, SHITS and POO.

I just discovered Words with Friends last week. I spent the first couple of days getting my ass kicked, but the tables have turned now!

There are many people who will not play Words with Friends/Scrabble/Boggle with me anymore. Hey, I give them fair warning!

X? ax, ex, ox, xi, xu. Get that X in a nice vowel filled corner with a double or triple letter? 50 points making two letter words BOOYAH!

TOTALLY addicted over here. I mean, seriously (b/c I'm a word geek and rarely get people to play traditional board game Scrabble, UpWords (yep, still got it!), or Boggle, my life is truly complete. I bought my husband an iPhone for Christmas. He recently added WWF. I have beat him a total of six times in three days always with a margin over 200+. I remind him there is a reason he calls me Word Girl.

Last night, I asked what he'd like for dinner.
Him: Huh? (gazing intently at phone)
Me: Dinner. Fish or chicken?
Him: You are truly asking me about food when I have no fucking consonants?

He now refers to it as Words With Enemies.

Qi, qat, xi, jo, and their plurals. These are your BFFs. Know them well!

I played this for a while, but found that the people I beat then didn't want to play anymore. I have a very short attention span, anyway, and was getting kinda bored. Then, a friend told me about Hanging with Friends...it's a cross between Hangman and Scrabble. You send people words you make with the letters they give you, and they have to guess the word. I'm pretty much obsessed!

My husband has the spelling skills of an illiterate illiterate and gave up playing real life scrabble with me years ago because I would always kick his arse. Fast forward to WWF and guess who kicks my arse regularly? Miserable sonofabitch cheats! He sits there and tries different combinations until it lets him have some obscure mix of letters which gives him a gazillion points at a time. Not only that, but the stupid game won't accept REAL words from me! In the last week it has not let me have the word 'latin'(but it would let me have 'latina')or the word 'satan'. WTF?
I call it Angry Words with Arseholes

Unfortunately, I am adicted.

I just played for the first time last week...with my sis. I finally beat her in a game! We have not played again because she will beat me and I'll have to figure out how I can continue being the writer in the family. I never knew I was so competitive!

This exact scenario is why I don't play either Scrabble OR WwF with my sister M. She's like the Notorious BIG of Scrabble. Bitch is GANGSTA. You can't even come close so don't even try. Playing with her makes me feel like Flowers for Algernon happened to my brain every time. It's ridiculous. She is not exactly, um, shy about her prowess either. Sometimes I just wanna say "Can you please put your Scrabble dick back in your pants? We've seen it. Thanks."

Boo for Words with Assholes. I'm down for a game of Words with Idiots though. I can haz triple letter score with an A?

Just don't play with that Baldwin guy ... I hear that he hates to lose.

go ahead and download Hanging With Friends ... I dare you .... muahahahahaha

I have at least four WWF and two HWF games going at all times.

I think those people who are winning by hundreds of points are using Descrambler. (It's an app.) At least I tell myself that when I'm down by 200 points and losing all dignity. I *was* valedictorian for heaven's sake, how can this happen?!
