A repetitive, addictive, yet oddly pleasurable game for two.
A grid of nine boxes is drawn. The players pick their symbol (a naught or a cross), then take turns to fill a box with their individual symbol. The winner is the first to complete a line of three symbols - diagonally, horizontally, or vertically. The loser will then immediatly demand a rematch.
This game is often played on the back rows of classrooms and lecture threatres in schools and Universities across the world.
"Please play naughts and crosses with me before I bite my own tongue off in boredom."
While playing pictionary one night, this is how my britishfriend Asela refers to the game tic-tac-toe as it is drawn for him. Being the naive Americans we are, we laugh at him and give him hell.
Setting somebody up for something a group of friends might be doing illegally, of course. Double crossing or triple crossing. A real snake move. Will likely get you killed in most cases.
Hey D, where Mike at? Man Mike gone he got caught throwing crosses by being with them other dudes on the South side.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.
Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
