Forty Rod SASS 3935 8,079 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 That guy comes across about as believable as people who have seen UFOs....and ridden on them. Not at all sincere. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alpo 7,697 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 What was the first one he was apologizing for? To the Chinese? I did not understand the term. I played the video three or four times and I still did not understand what he said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I played the video three or four times and I still did not understand what he said. Chinese whispers or telephone is an internationally popular children's game. Players form a line or circle, and the first player comes up with a message and whispers it to the ear of the second person in the line. The second player repeats the message to the third player, and so on. Wikipedia 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpo 7,697 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Thank you Joe. It did sound like he was saying whispers, but "Chinese whispers" made no sense to me. I recall playing the game, in elementary school. Don't remember it ever having a name. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ramblin Gambler 1,513 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 We called it telephone. You could have the person repeat the message once by saying operator? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

watab kid 1,273 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 same way that telephone game became the rummer game in the assembly department - they started a whisper of a more serious nature and waited to see how much more serious it got when it came back around to them , 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
