    I would love to see my roommate play this game.

    they would be so goddamned easy to fool

    i have to note -- this game only works if you don't have real shitty friends because it could get ugly fast. it never really has for me (other than the somebody gets way too drunk that happens at any party,) and i moreso love seeing the completely asinine leaps in logic people make from point a to point b to prove something that is so benign. there is a very real reason it's a stripper. and i like to think, in the end, since no one has ever won, maybe a few people walk away with some stigmas shaken out of their heads.

    my ultimate goal now, since i have networked with so many sex workers, is to see if i could stump them.

    Have you ever not had a stripper but told people there was one?

    That seems very disingenuous and a solid way to ruin any future parties from hosting that game.

    I loved college parties and might have gotten more useful future knowledge out of them than I did out of my major.

    The social aspect of college is really important, in my book, and it's one of the reasons I would recommend college as an institution.

    Oh so that's why college was a trainwreck for me

    I don’t enjoy large parties and especially large parties where people are drinking.

    So of course I joined a fraternity in college.

    Well now you need to invite all your past stripping friends for a big party and have them guess who the non stripper is!

    That was my suggestion. Why bother with a game that's simply stacked in your favor when you can just rig the game to make it impossible to lose?

    Also, did the stripper eventually strip? Because if I'm at a party (unlikely, but stay with me here), and someone said someone there was a stripper, and at the end of the night, NO ONE stripped, I'd be pretty disappointed.

    I did this once for Strip Poker, and was promptly told I was disqualified and needed to put my shirt and pants back on immediately.

    Also once my college roommates were having a party I wasn't invited to and I was trying to sleep between my jobs, I didn't know they were having a party all I knew is it was loud upstairs and I needed to pee. I walked upstairs to use the bathroom and the party full 90's movie stopped. I swear there was at least 3 naked people but everyone was staring at me. I must have walked by several people in the kitchen but I totally didn't notice it? I was super out of it. Next day there was a new rule on the House Rules board: Bucketman must always wear pants and a shirt. I asked why it was ok for the other people to be naked and was told that I knew why. I hated those guys.

    Sounds like your roommates were the sort of folk who would play Guess the Stripper without actually inviting a stripper to the party

    The one roommate I liked had that "problem". Thats how he became a Mormon for 2 months. Woke up on the couch after a night of HEAVY drinking to a knock at the door. Forgot he was wearing only a robe and accidentally exposed his blue ribbon hog to the two nice gentlemen who wanted to tell him about the Church.

    As way of apology he went to their church for two months and helped do some community service work with them.
