    the school game with your hand to make either stone, paper or scissors? I thought it was, "paper, scissors, stone", but I looked it up and it said, "scissors, paper, stone". What was it, guise?

    Any **** that says, "rock, paper, scissors" or uses the word "rock" shall be shot at dawn.

    Really? I thought the "rock" bit was a yank thing that just took over in the UK? Not sure we can be friends anymore.

    Us younger guys were brought up watching American TV shows so maybe that's the issue? Never heard it called anything else but we never really played it when we were young because we were fighting ****s who had the audacity to come from another street.

    I was born in the mid-80s so I called it 'rock/paper/scissors'.

    Guess it was probably called 'scissors, paper, stone' back in the day. In ER's youth it was 'flint/mammouth hide/stone'.

    It's rock, paper, scissors.

    Always has been, always is and always will be.

    One of life's constants just like Toby's stench.

    It must be a Campbeltown thing then, or maybe the yanks say the "stone" bit. I'm drunk and confused.

    Do kids still play conkers?

    I used to enjoy a good game of conkers. I had a 155er.
