While playing Trivial Pursuit Totally '80's Edition with Debi, Jr. Sunday
we came upon this question:

"What Democrat bowed out of the U.S. presidential race in 1987, after allegations of plagiarism arose?"

AAACCCKKKK :banghead:

The card with the offending question has been forwarded to friends close to Biden for proper disposal. It will not be allowed in our Trivial Pursuit game! x(

4. The card no longer exists (at least in the Debi household)
I'm sure the Biden folks will take care of business! ;)

6. Kind of eerie that it showed up in our set of questions
I mean how many are there in each game? And what are the chances that THAT question on THAT card would be drawn by Debi, Jr.? :crazy:

Not very popular? What are you talking about? Who doesn't love TP???? :shrug:

7. It was fate. Your family was meant to see that card.

Who doesn't like TP? Moi! That's who :P

edit to add, that I loved the 80's, so maybe I would enjoy that version.
Yeah - I remember those skin tight jeans, big shirt with a big belt, big hair, mega eyeliner -
the 80's were fun. Loved the music in the 80's too.

8. Don't worry - we purchased your quota
We have the original (Mom and Dad sent it on after they quit using it - they also bought extra cards Silver Screen Edition and Sports Edition) - We have the 20th Anniversary Edition, '90s Edition and Totally '80's Edition. I just convinced my almost 20 year old son to donate the Disney Edition to our local coffee shop. The have an area for little kids to play (and other games for grown ups as well).

Playing board games distracts us from our lack of social life during the political off-season.

10. Fashion was so much easier in the '80s
Big Bright and Bold (hair, clothes and accesories).

Of course back then I was also a size 3 - what doesn't look good on a size 3??? :banghead: LIFE was so much easier in the '80s!!
