Boozy game of Pictionary recently. OH and I are on opposing teams. It's both our turn to draw.

The word is 'Sell'.

OH starts to draw something resembling a shop transaction. Me, being the creative soul and lateral thinker I am, draw a prison cell which is done in seconds. My team yells out 'cell' - we win the point.

But this is disputed because the word was Sell.

We argue that we said 'Sell' the fact that the picture was of a Cell was irrelevant. The object was to use a drawing to get the team to guess the word. Cell and Sell sound exactly the same. So we said it and won the point!

The debate has been running for a while now so throwing it out to the PH jury for adjudication.

They're two different things! How can you possibly justify claiming the win? I don't know how you can live with yourself. Hang your head in shame.

Yep, don't see the problem. To be honest, my drawing skills are so bad, if I had to draw a picture of a prison cell and a picture resembling a shop transaction they'd probably both look very similar anyway hehe
