(07:07:27 PM) emily: i don't know but it makes me think of beavis and butthead
(07:07:28 PM) kevin: ergh
(07:07:31 PM) kevin: The game is simple. Players toss colored bean bags toward a tilted board with a 6" diameter hole in the surface. A bag in the hole scores! There are many variations on the basic game, but the equipment is the same.

(07:08:24 PM) yam: somebody emailed to the neighborhood list

(07:11:05 PM) kevin: but now less people have a bunch of corn

(07:11:19 PM) kevin: so they use beanbags
(07:11:32 PM) emily: i am pretty sure the "anus" usage came after the "actual corn" usage
(07:11:52 PM) emily: i cannot believe we are discussing corn vs. anuses
