The game takes place in a garage. There are 2 players. It is very much like racquetball, except the racquet is your hand.
The garage is divided according to the players mutual agreement on what the goal/score lines are.
You must open-hand slap the ball, which is a dodgeball, onto the floor once before the other player can return.
You score by getting the ball past the other player's zone.
You can bounce the ball off the walls, furniture, lamps, etc., but it can only bounce off the floor once.
Drinking is usually involved, and you can expect to break some things; but things you probably don't give a shit about anyway. This sounds strange, but it gets hysterical.

Joe: Wanna play dodgeball?
Blow: What? It's midnight, there's only two of us and we're half drunk in Mom's garage.
Joe: Wanna play garageball?
Blow: Word!

Get the garageball mug.The sensation of needing to go back in the house to fire off a missile immediately after starting a project in the garage. It's a real momentum killer. If you're ever constipated, head out to the garage and pick up a drill. Instant 💩. #garageshits

The strong, feminist lead in JK Rowling's Harry Potter series. Although sometimes seen as bookish, nagging or standoffish, she is also startlingly intelligent, instinctively brave and loyal and also the focus of much of the humour in Rowling’s later installments. The young Miss Granger does suffer for her intelligence, being labelled an “insufferable know-it-all” by her own teacher (evil Snape *hiss*)...

(Romilda Vane and Harry are staring at each other across the library)
Hermione Granger: (snaps her fingers) Hey! She's only interested in you because she thinks you're the Chosen One.
Harry Potter: But I am the Chosen One.
(Hermione smacks him on the head with the newspaper)
Harry Potter: Sorry... kidding!

Get the Hermione Granger mug.Garage rock is a subgenre of rock'n'roll that dates back to the late 1950's when amateur bands exploded across the United States. The name comes from the assumption that bands practiced in suburban garages and were often very crude, but this belies the fact that they were diverse in their approaches, ranging from basic one or two chord wonders to very professional acts that even had regional hits. Some bands, like The Monks and The Velvet Underground, were even very experimental in their approach. For example, the Velvet Underground were as much influenced by avant-garde composers like LaMonte Young and Ornette Coleman as they were Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Link Wray and Bob Dylan. While the Monks were less influenced by the Avant Garde, their approach was unusual by using a banjo as a replacement for a lead guitar that gave a wiry sound, lyrics that bordered on surreal minimalistic rants, no use of cymbals and drumming that owed as much to polkas and military marches as they did rock'n'roll.
The most famous characteristics of garage rock are the Fuzztone guitar sound (as used on "The Witch" by The Sonics), Farfisa organ stabs and raw production qualities at odds with the polished production of both major record labels and acts like The Beatles. The Sonics often adopted the production techniques and methods of Link Wray, such as putting a hole in the loudspeaker of their amplifiers to get distortion commonplace in many of the more raunchy R&B based bands. The rough production of garage rock was very influential on many early punk bands, who played and recorded songs in as crude a manner out of necessity.
By The early 1970's, The New York Dolls and The Stooges were part of a new wave of bands influenced by and continuing the crude, raunchy, primitive sound of garage rock at odds with the progressive rock that dominated the music industry at that time. By this time, it was being called "punk" (a term coined by Lester Bangs in Creem Magazine, the first band to call their music thus were Suicide). This lead to a garage rock revival in the late 1970's, which continues to this day.
While this is superficial, it is only intended as a potted guide.
