Cluedo is a God-send! I have spent many late nights the past week suggesting and accusing and I am so addicted to the game that I find myself looking forward to coming home just so that I can play the game with my brother and his wife. Addictions are nasty business indeed.
On one such night, my brother and I were deciding where to take the family for dinner. Every weekend, we pick a location that we've not been to before and once a decision has been made, he drives us all there. To make said decisions, we entrust the help of this site, Hungry Go Where. I absolutely am fascinated by how organised the categories are and you are literally spoiled for choice! It caters to lifestyle choice, time of day, craving, preference of location etc. That's how David's birthday dinner location was finalised and believe me, it was a memorable dining experience.
But that's not my point. A couple of days back, my brother asked if I knew any nice places that he could take his wife to. Without blinking an eye, I very casually said, "Oh, go to boredgowhere.com" and he really did! I think my natural passive nature fooled him and he couldn't tell that I was pulling a fast one on him! Damn.
Then it hit me, BoredGoWhere.com does sound like a legitimate site. Think about it, if there really is a Hungry Go Where, why not the one which I made up? It must have been the night air but the hamsters in my head were racing on their wheels; I started coming up with ridiculous yet believable site names. Bored Go Where - I would honestly visit this site quite religiously.
Antisocial Go Where - For those, like me, who shun crowded spots. The only downfall is popularity would defeat the purpose of the site.
Emo Go Where - For those who are tired of sitting in the bathroom slitting your wrists, visit the site for more locations to brood with your posse.
Lazy Go Where - Haunts located a stone's throw from your area of residence.
A crazy thought was to have one that catered to your lifestyle choice (Straight Go Where, Gay Go Where, Curious Go Where etc...). Come on, it's hilarious!! Don't get me wrong, this is just meant to be a joke but as Barney (as in Neil Patrick Harris' character in How I Met Your Mother and not the purple dinosaur) would say, "If you don't laugh, it would just seem mean."
Plus I was awake way after my bedtime so I had to stop coming up with site names... and for the record, if those names do get used, you heard it here first.
Oh and Aqil, stop reading what I KNOW you're reading before you get addicted. Ask me nicely and I may just share with you my favourite stories *wink wink*.
