Your Mom.

In high school I had a smart friend. One of those summers Karl was sent to smart-kid camp. The most rewarding of the smart kids to dos was the creation of a game. Each camper came up with their own and then they tested it out.. Karl’s game never made it home. It was probably an uninspired and hokey thing. But he was a smart kid, like I said, so he brought home the best game created by a fellow camper. This fellow camper, it is rumored, was even smarters than the Karl. She called the game was Shingles. We call it Your Mom.

Your Mom is mostly derived from the categories card of King’s Cup.
Three (four is better) or more players sit in a circle. All the cards from a deck are dealt evenly. Use two decks if there is an excessively large number of players.
Every player chooses a category. Every other player at the table has absolute veto power over every other players choice.
Category examples: Teams. Shoe brands. Things found in the bush. Things found in a truck-stop bathroom. STDs. Curse words. Racial slurs. Animal noises. Parts of a plane. Things Rusty has groped. Smells. 80s Bands. Catchphrases. Hairstyles. Things that land soft. Sexual positions. Assassins. Wars. Nations. States. Places to pierce your body. Famous gays. Names for a penis. Drugs. Things that melt. Night sounds. People who have made the world worse. Famous horses. Show tunes. Russian authors. World leaders. Things you pet.

Once everyone has settled on a category, You go around the circle twice and clearly state your category. Here play starts and you are no longer allowed to mention anyone’s (or your own) category aloud. Someone plays a card in front of themselves, from their facedown deck. The next person plays their card in front of themselves. And so on. You play your next card on top of your last, making a pile of face-up cards in front of yourself.
When a face-up card is paired, the two players with matching cards must name something from the other person’s category. Whoever is first with a correct and yet unused answer is the winner of the match and gives his/her face-up pile to the loser, who places these new cards at the bottom of his/her facedown deck. Once you have played your last card on your face-up pile, you leave it down and wait for a match to appear. Whoever is completely out of cards first is the winner of the game.

Extra rule: When a player at the table plays a match on themselves (they play an 8 and their last card showing was an 8) it is everyone at the table versus the person with the pair. The category for both sides is the paired person’s. If the person with the pair wins, they give their played cards to whomever they wish. If anyone else wins, they must pick up their own cards. In both instances the pair is broken up within the deck.

I wanted these rules online. Now they are.
