Initially, I was going to title this post \u201cOkay, Cards Against Humanity<\/em> is dumb,\u201d but when I think about the impetus<\/a> to this post, it\u2019s not so much that CAH is dumb, but the people who are enamored with the game that are dumb.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get me wrong, I think CAH is pretty dumb in itself, what with its minimalistic design of white Arial bold on black on everything that symbolizes a dagger into creativity, and the fact that it\u2019s a game that\u2019s basically the equivalent of being crass and vulgar because being crass and vulgar is supposedly cool.\u00a0 But CAH wouldn\u2019t be the game so well known if not for the hordes of fans who love the game and are so willing to blow their money on cards with text on them, or in some cases, nothing at all,<\/a> that are the party that should be subject to more criticism.<\/span><\/p>\n

I mean I can\u2019t hate on CAH for making money, that\u2019s what they\u2019re in business for.\u00a0 But I can\u2019t get over the fact that there really are that many people who are so dumb and careless with their own money that they\u2019d willingly forfeit it to a company that flamboyantly expresses their intent to do absolutely nothing of any worth with it.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Of course there\u2019s some degree of \u201cu jelly\u201d involved in this, because I would love it if random people gave me $70,000 at five dollars at a time, for absolutely nothing.\u00a0 But it blows my mind sometimes when I think that CAH said \u201cwe\u2019re going to dig a giant hole in the ground, give us money to keep the equipment moving\u201d and then people literally paid over $100,000 to keep the machinery moving.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is actually worse than when people paid some douchebag like $50,000 because he wanted to make a potato salad, because at least there was an objective, a goal in mind for that lame endeavor.\u00a0 CAH literally had no end game or true objective with the hole they dug; and pretty much stated that there would not be.\u00a0 And people still decided that it was funny, and sent them $100,000 for absolutely nothing gained.<\/span><\/p>\n

$100,000 is some legit life-changing money for most middle-to-lower class people.\u00a0 $100,000 would pretty much pay off the remainder of my mortgage, and put me into a situation where I could legit change my life, hopefully for the better.\u00a0 $100,000 could probably make a substantial difference to the lives of lots of people, even broken out into smaller segments and shared with multiple people.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sure, it\u2019s kind of the basis of a pyramid scheme, but if a ton of people crowdsourced $70,000-100,000 for other people, or even charitable causes, it would make a who lot more of a difference as opposed to literally giving it away for nothing like they\u2019re doing for CAH.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who knows if the CAH are trying to prove some sort of senseless point or if they\u2019re really just sadistic and like the idea of testing how dumb people can be, but they certainly are succeeding at proving just how brainless and how big of followers people have the capability of being.\u00a0 $170,000 over the last two years for zero point is an absurd amount of money, and I\u2019d really hope that one of these days, CAH actually does something worthwhile with that kind of scratch.\u00a0 I wouldn\u2019t hold my breath, but we can all have hopes.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
