Playing Grabass
This week at the gym I had to reprimand The Russian for playing grabass at the gym. I was doing leg extensions pressing about 200 pounds 20 times and while I was working hard Maksim (The Russian) and Greggo (The Male Model) were horsing around. They were kicking each other and in the process they kicked me. When I finished my set I said, "Hey, stop playing grabass!"
It was really funny, Maksim looked at me quizzically and said, "I wasn't grabbing his ass!"
I let out a hearty chuckle and explained to Maksim that "Grabass" is really any type of playing around in the gym or the locker room. It is commonly used by coaches to tell the guys to stop fooling around. Maksim replied with an understanding, "Oh".
Now stop playing Grabass and leave me some comments!

A website for Madonna? Eddo's doing a website for Madonna?

Madonna? Grabass? Irony.
Jes?? Seriously?? Never heard of Grabass? I assure you that he did not make up the term... I will even FARKLE you for it! (I cant believe you guys use that word) ITS CALLED ROSHAMBO TEXANS!!
ROSHAMBO is one of my cousins on my black side... I find you so offensive Steve - it is called FARKLING!!!!!!!!

You will see the true champ is the RoSHamBO!!

Steve, you do not want to mess wity my cousin Roshambo - she can be very violent when angered and when I tell her that you are naming a game after her, well, let's just say she won't be playin'.
You better hope you have a box of rocks and a basket of scissors because you are going to need them to defend yoself!
i just tinkled
(is that like farkling?)
Farkling is both a dice game and the throwing of rock, paper, and scissors.
FoManCho is somthing you made up.
Oh Katie..
I am so going to write crass things on your blog and delete them so that you have to explain them on game night
Google it!
Now Steve I thought you would have learned your lesson about googling things you don't already know a lot about. :)
FARKLE
We are sooo fighting right no on multiple sites... I am going to start another random fight with you on someone elses blog...
Im getting playground tough now...
"AFTER SCHOOL!!!!"
(callin YOU out!)
Ok Steve you asked for it:
http://www.columbiamissourian.com/news/story.php?ID=8733
Teams are determined by something called a “farkle” — a complicated version of rock-paper-scissors, which is also used to clear up any disagreements during the game. The farkle takes place right before play begins. This means that teams change from game to game, making it hard for ongoing rivalries to develop. An enemy from one game could be an ally in the next.
Rock, Paper, Scissors
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Rock, Paper, Scissors chartRock, Paper, Scissors (sometimes with the elements in its name permuted and/or Rock replaced with Stone and/or Paper with Cloth, but also known as Ick-Ack-Ock, Schnik Schnak Schnuk, Janken, Mora, Morra Cinese, Gawi-Bawi-Bo, JanKenPon, Ca-Chi-Pun, Farkle, Ching-Chong-Cha, or Kai Bai Bo) is a popular hand game most often played by children. It is often used in a similar way to coin flipping, Odd or Even, throwing dice or drawing straws to randomly select a person for some purpose, though unlike truly random selections it can be played with skill if the game extends over many sessions, because one can often recognize and exploit the non-random behavior of an opponent.
Too Funny Eddo!
and yes...it is Farkling!!
here is the answer:

I'm confused!!!! Well I agree tho that we missed you yesterday Eddo! I have no comments on Farkling or Grabass, lol.
"Rock Paper Scissors(Roshambo,Janken)," or "Deciding who goes first."
In Japan, Janken(Rock, Paper, Scissors/Roe, Sham, Boe) is a game for children, but is often used by adults as a way to decide who goes first. We often use it instead of "tossing a coin" - It works easily with more people, and you can't lose a coin!!
USED BY ADULTS!! I understand now why you dont get it Katie!!
probably better that whole link doesnt show up!
I was wondering why I went to where I went with the partial link.
My definition is from an encyclopedia . . . . so there.
I'm going to start calling it
Schnik Schnak Schnuk
I liked that one the best. I had missed out on this conversation and couldn't for the life of me figure out Jubal's post on my site.
Eddo,
Ever notice how people are using your blog to have conversations that no longer include you?
If anyone wants to see some more of Eddo's brilliance, visit www.blogasheville.blogspot.com and scroll down to my post about buttons.
Thanks, EDDO!
I've heard of Grabass... so stop playing "Grabass" and come comment on my blog...
lol.
Eddo, what interesting friends you have!! lol!!! it's about time you called me, I thought you had dropped off the face of the earth, been raptured or something!!!
lol dana.. been raptured.
1. I have heard of grabass.. but never witnessed it praise jesus.
2. I have never heard of Farkle or Roshambo (nor of your cousin with the same name).. where I come from it is plain ROCK PAPER SCISSORS!
However if I was to take sides I am so taking sides with Katie because I like the word Farkle! It sounds like something the Three Stooges would have said.. farkle farkle farkle.
Eddie, I am hooked. You grabbed with this post and I suppose I'll keep coming back for more. :)
Yea. I knew I liked you Ms. Thang.
Katie... :) Of course because I am so likeable and persuasable at times lol. Especially when it comes to funny words and ganging up on men ;) (sorry steve)
