Catch Phrase makes me laugh every single time I play. My friends and family think I have played too many times cuz I can guess the correct word or phrase within seconds of someone saying something usually but everyone has a different way of describing something so I don't think it has to do with how often you have played. I just see a roledex in my mind and the possible answers are narrowed down quickly.
This time the "funniest moment" was when Amanda (my teammate) was trying to get me to say "nautical mile". She told me it had to do with sailing so I was shouting out things like yar, starboard, ropes, sails, etc. She then told me it was distance, like foot, yard, meters. I finally shouted, "Mile!" and she said "YES, but a sea one." So I was slightly confused and searched my Rolodex. I finally came up with KNOTS! I was quite proud of myself but then she said "No, THE SEA"..... well a knot is "the sea" form of telling distance so I was soooo confused. At this point we are howling with laughter already. 'Nautical' finally pops into my head as the buzzer is getting close to buzzing me but my mouth was ahead of my poor brain and I shouted out "nautical knot!"........... and the buzzer buzzed. As soon as I said "nautical knot" I knew it was supposed to be "nautical mile" but I thought Amanda had told me NO to mile which is why I came up with knots in the first place. She was laughing sooooo hard at me.
We gave the other team their point and moved on, still wiping tears from our eyes. The next thing Amanda tried to get me to say was Rug Rats. Her way of doing this was "Little kids! Carpet rodents!" Well that carpet rodents put me over the edge... I was laughing sooooo hard. Amanda was laughing so hard she stopped the buzzer so she could calm down cuz she was afraid she might throw up! It was the funniest moment I have had in that game in a long time.
Ahhh Catch Phrase ... you complete me. ;)
