Ask HMF anything

I understood very little of this until I saw the picture and then it clicked in my head (a little better at least). Thanks for including the photo for those of us who usually eat crayons :crayon:

Ah, yes. The US Marine Corps way.

I remember a guy in high school that drank a bottle of blue tempera paint. I think the teacher sent him to the nurse’s office… Probably to induce vomiting, or just to make sure he didn’t get sick. And afterwards, some of the other kids asked if his :poop: was blue. :thinking: Whether he said it was or not - I forget.

They give them the rainbow ones as rations, a few brown ones for emergency camo and a black one for writing reports.

Do only germans understand what is happening here, or does this game exist in your country too?

Does this game require you to use that vaguely Euro-detective thriller/serial killer lighting?

Seems that this is popular in some parts of the US too even though it has its origins in Germany :stuck_out_tongue:

Wow. Ok. And I even lived in PA for 10 years and never heard of that weird game. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

German party game, lets say you have 4 players, you put 5 nails in a block of wood, one for each participant and one in the middle. You have to hit the nail in the middle and then the one assigned to you. If you put the one in the middle all the way into the wood, you have to do the same with your own.

If you fail to do so, or hammer your nail all the way in before the middle one you’ve lost the game and have to drink a schnaps. If you miss one or both nails, you have to drink a schnaps…

EDIT oh and while you wait for your turn you can drink a schnaps.

I might come in Germany in a few months for work, we’ll have to try it if we have the chance to meet :beers: :hammer:
Can’t guarantee that I won’t get so drunk that the hammer will fall over my mug of beer.

In my country you just order the beer and then you drink it.

This game also exists with a “hard” difficulty, where you have to touch the nail with the hammerhead, then the tip of your nose and then hammer in the nail… We don’t play it this way anymore tho, too many broken noses :sweat_smile:
