I’m in the midst of creating a faux “Cards Against Humanity” game right now. 
The format lends itself perfectly to Spanish class because it tends to use 
sentence frames often. I’ll drop the whole shebang to the listserv when I’m 
finished. On second thought, maybe I’ll send it to you on request. I should 
have a mostly school-appropriate copy by the end of today or tomorrow.

Take care,

Nanosh

In case you aren’t familiar with the game, it’s like Apples to Apples but 
adult-oriented and incredibly demeaning and inappropriate. And for certain 
people it tends to be very funny. Having played Apples to Apples in class, I 
find that it lacks some immediate relevancy - this new twist should address 
that issue by using vocabulary we’ve used in class, famous people, and the 
names of familiar places and staff at our school.
