Sorry, Arturo, is it meant to be an unfunny, pointless waste of time?
Just don't get the point (assuming there is one in the first place.)
WTF?
I looked at it. Way too subtle for my old brain.

Quite, ol' boy.
Perhaps some sort of strange American thing?
Weird. Must indeed be something that only Mericans understand.
I don't get it either. Looks like some sort of game. :notsure:
It's a fairly popular card game.

Er, "in America"? :)
Could not even work out a rule system.
Well, it's a group game. That link is just one part of the game.
----
1) So for one round, one person is the judge and picks up and lays down the black card that has a blank in it.
2) Then the other players play a white card face down to fill in that blank.
3) Then the judge mixes up all the white cards, and then reads the black card while filling in the space with each white card.
4) The judges chooses the one they think is the funniest. The player who that card belongs to gets a point.
5) The next person becomes a judge.
First to seven wins.

So that link is like playing only the 2nd step. I think it's a fun and hilarious game.
It is popular in the UK too. I've never actually played it but have definitely heard about it.

Ah, in its proper context, yeah, I can see its attractions (especially when on the outside of a suitable volume of alcohol). As it is as peesented it was a bit of a puzzle.
Sorry, I forgot to ask if anybody knew the game.
From the Daily Mash:
A COMMITTED atheist who has blocked his friend's toilet has called upon the mercy of the Lord, he has admitted.
Joe Turner caused the blockage the day after enjoying a huge roast washed down with loads of red wine, and having exhausted all practical options has turned to the spiritual world.
He said: "Please, oh Lord, if you're really there send me a miracle. Or at least something long and pokey like a barbecue fork.
"Ben can't find out the truth about what happened here. He cannot know the foul deeds I perform in his bathroom. Help me in my hour of need.
"Reveal yourself to me, your humble servant, and I swear I will spread your teachings like St Paul after his conversion. Oh God, he's coming up the stairs. Lord. Please."
God said: "I appreciate the sentiment. But it's never going to make an inspiring parable, is it?"
I've played it too. It's fun if you don't take it too seriously, but definitely not for everyone.

Very true...and as mentioned above by Gloucester, a suitable amount of alcohol makes it even better.
