    Oh shit - what was that card game that was played back in UK schoolyards the 80s where you had to pick some card from a pack and depending upon what it was, you then got your knuckles rapped by the pack and there was a technique to shaping the back to deliver the most pain? Like, if you picked the 2 of clubs you got two soft knuckle raps, but if you got the King of hearts (red for blood) your knuckles were basically going to get fucked from 12 hard bastard raps?

    Anyone else have that, or was that some peculiarly-sadistic thing from that one school?

    • Sorry, 13 hard raps for a king.Nairn
    • Technique was to shift the topmost five cards into a small triangular jutting, which would just pure shred skin. Jesus, thinking about it now, wut?Nairn
    • we did, and just called it 'raps'Fax_Benson
    • Ok! Cool, thanks - Yes, I think you're right about the name - clearly a small part of my brain realised that, whilst the rest assiduously ignored it :)Nairn
    • Horrible really. the right card deck angle / wrist speed / brute force combo on the first couple raps would slice the skin off like prosciutto.Fax_Benson
