Scrabble lap

When you suck so terribly at Scrabble that your opponent doubles your score, typically while you are still figuring out why you have a tile with no letter on it.

"Nice, I have 62 points."
"Suck it, I have 130"
"How the hell did that happen? You Scrabble lapped me!"

Scramble For Africa

The Scramble for Africa was the occupation, division, and colonisation of African territory by European powers during the period of New Imperialism, between 1881 and 1914. It is also called the Partition of Africa and by some the Conquest of Africa. In 1870, only 10 percent of Africa was under formal European control; by 1914 it had increased to almost 90 percent of the continent, with only Ethiopia (Abyssinia), the Dervish state (a portion of present-day Somalia)1 and Liberia still being independent.

What the meaning of Scramble For Africa really means. Hey Africa is mine you Britishhh coc No its mine u Italian umm.. a pizza.

Scrabble Rage

noun. A feeling of mounting frustration and even anger commonly experienced by the losing player in the popular board game, Scrabble. Scrabble Rage will often follow a surprise high-scoring word from the opponent and is particularly likely if the winner (or soon-to-be a winner) shows any signs of smugness*

NB In extreme cases of Scrabble Rage, anything the winner does or says can be interpreted by the loser as smugness. While violence is rare, much tutting, sighing, reddening of the face, muttering about bad tiles and staring into space has been recorded during outbreaks of Scrabble Rage.

*See Scrabble Smugness.

Woman: Whenever my husband loses at Scrabble he gets the most awful Scrabble Rage.

Husband: You could at least wait for me to leave the room before you start talking about me.
