(Pictorial) Game of the Banal
Some time ago, Michaela and I invented a game called 'The Game of the Banal.' Perhaps we have told you about it before. Simply constructed, the game entails calling out words that have little to no strong connotations, neither negative nor positive. For example, lint is banal, but corner is not (you may have been sent there as punishment; corners can be sharp; corners are obstacles). Memorandum is banal; epoxy is not (it implies a permanence and the second syllable, POX, has a satisfying popping sound).

Go work for your best friend at his struggling packaging business for four years, then see how neutral you feel about cardboard!
Otherwise, a capital game. I'll try to kick in a submission here and there.
