Well I guess I'll have to answer your question with another question:  How many aboriginals do you see playing solitaire?  Zoolander anyone?  Anyone?  Oh well.  So I think Solitaire is one lame ass game, but I must admit I have spent hours playing it in my dorm room as a freshman.  My addiction got so bad I had to win 3 times in a row before I could go to sleep, and my boyfriend and I would "race" at the Nash computer lab when he would come to visit.  SO... now that you know I'm a nerd and a half, uh.... solitaire is LAME, but it is addictive like corn-nuts on a road trip.  I am now solitaire-free for a year or so now, and I'm proud of it.  But now since you've mentioned it, I might have to play it tonight.  Blast!  Keep it real.  –Maggie

I wouldn't say that playing solitaire is necessarily lame.  However, I can honestly say I've never played and 
I think this is because if I ever get some free time by myself I can find many other things I'd rather do.  
Now that I really think about it, it's probably safe to say that I will never in my life play solitaire.  
That being said, I may just do it so that I don't go through life without ever having the experience, although 
that will be the only motivation and it will surely be a one time thing. Holly Ramage

Oh sweet motha!  Solitare is so not lame.  The computerized version of solitare has been my lifeline, my taste of happiness and joy immersed in a world of word documents, excel spreadsheets and databases.  I love solitare.  And I think I am pretty good at it too- top score so far is 6976 points in 111 seconds.  So do I admit to enjoying it?  you bet!!  I will declare it on the mountain tops- I LOVE SOLITARE, actually, I think I might be addicted- welp, at least its not crack.  now I got to go get back to just one more game....

I love solitaire it's my only source of excitement in an otherwise mundane life.  Sometimes I go to giant solitaire tournaments in exotic places, like Cleveland. RaZoR 2D

Not lame…I never win when I play with real cards…but I do when I play on the computer…what does that mean???  Still, not lame.  Gary, nice anecdote.  Josh
