So far Dad 6 kids 0 Muhahahahahaha. Maybe they can score one at school now. I doubt it bet a teacher lays one on them first. :) And yes not only am I that bad at drawing I’m so bad that this is a trace and it’s still almost unrecognizable.

looong time ago I nailed my dad I was 13-15 and he’s a beast so I let him have it. We died laughing little did I know while we laughed he was taking a detour pass a junk yard full of vw’s... He lit me up rapid fire style. Lesson learned dont mess with the old man!

My kids play a motorcycle game. When they see a motorcycle they yell “MOTORCYCLE”

We were discussing wether one sitting at a stoplight counts or if it has to be moving. I said it counts.

It certainly does count! The real argument would be trikes or any of theses modern 3 wheel vehicles. Wait when do we get to punch these kids during this game?!

No punching for motorcycles... I will teach them the slug bug game soon enough.

I’m ok with them noticing motorcycles on the road and being aware.

It’s SLUG BUG!!!!!

See how nice that rhymes? It just rolls off the tongue.

My kids and I have been playing it for years. Due to a derelict bug on the route to school, we had to exclude any that were parked in the same spot every day. What was supposed to be a fun game had turned into a daily argument.

That totally makes since but my years of yelling “punch bug no punch backs!” can’t be corrected. I’d like to think it’s a regional dialect thing but it’s a safe bet that actually I’m just dumb and never noticed others saying something else.

I’m not sure if it’s a regional thing, but we’ve debated about it here before.

Wikipedia , that oh-so-reliable source, calls it “Punch Buggy.”

Morons.

VW tried to co-opt the game with an advertising campaign . They wanted it to be “Punch Dub.”

Again, morons.

I can live with either. The last heated OPPO debate I was in was toilet paper roll loading over or under. It got crazy:)
