Wow, that guy's either an four-star retard or has the attention span of a gnat. Possibly both. He's insulting and stupid. I have ADD and I didn't think Catan had that many rules. What's the last game this guy played? The "Search for Barney" game on the back fo a box of Fruity Pebbles? I'd imagine "Chutes and Ladders" being too difficult for him.

Chutes and Ladders? Yes, I agree. I can never remember if you climb down the ladders and get sucked up the chutes or if you climb up the ladders and slide down the chutes.

I guess it depends on the volume of halucenogenic drugs you've taken.

Old thread, I know, but just thought I'd point out that the "guy" who wrote the article is a woman.  ;)
