Colorless Green Cards
So... I've been working on a linguistics-based card game (part of my whole idea that we need an artefactual linguistics in order to truly view language as a object). It's called Colorless Green Cards. The idea is that you build up NP, VP, and PP NODES and combine the nodes to form SENTENCE SETS, all while never using the same lexeme more than once and also, of course, trying to be funny about it.
You can play it with an ordinary deck of cards. The rules and description are here. It's dorky, but if you've got time and a fellow dorky linguist friend to play with, I'd love some help with beta-testing it. If you do play it, send me all your thoughts!
