Nothing jump-starts your Friday night pregame like a 45-minute Hitler joke. Did you just suggest that "battlefield amputations" is an appropriate answer to what you envision when you think about your first pet? Damn, that's messed up. Stop and smell the BLEACHED ANUS haha gross! Luckily for us 'Cards fans there's a Kickstarter for a fresh new deck: Cards Against Brooklyn.
For just $13 you get 54 "Brooklyn-themed" cards that really deflate Brooklyn's image of being a "cool" place. Hipsters with mustaches? You can shove a dildo full of Africanized honey bees into their mouths! "Gentrification"? Hell yeah you know it's there too.
DNAinfo got the scoop from Cards Against Brooklyn creator Michael Sarrantonio:
Sarrantonio thought of the idea for a Brooklyn version of the game while playing "Cards Against Humanity" with a group of friends.
"I had a light bulb moment," he said. "It's one of the best party games ever created, but adding a more personalized touch with details that only locals of an area can relate to makes it so much better."
"It's essentially adding an 'inside joke' element to an already hilarious game."
Nothing's funnier than an inside joke (except maybe the L Train smelling like "sustainably foraged quail eggs"? Take that, you fucking hipsters.)
Sarrantonio needs a little more than $700 to reach his goal of $1,000. He's also raising money for Cards Against NYC, Cards Against Long Island, Cards Against Newburgh, Cards Against North Haverbrook, Cards Against Cards, Cards Against House of Cards, Cards Against Trees, Cars Against Odds, Cards Against House, Cards Against Normcore, Cards
