Good morning, time-waster-seeking FrontBurnervians. A little McGill family Christmas tradition: Every year, my mom would buy the most challenging Hallmark holiday-themed jigsaw puzzle she could find, thinking it would take my dad and me a week to finish it, but we’d usually polish it off in a few days and then start on another one. Every year, my brother–no jigsaw puzzler, he–would surreptitiously swipe a piece and tuck it away until it was the final piece needed. As my dad and I would look for the missing piece in the couch’s cushions and the dog’s mouth, my brother would saunter in, place the piece, and declare victory as the one who finished it. Good times.
In that spirit, today’s Friday Fun is Jigsawce. It’s a jigsaw-puzzle game, but you play against other people. The more pieces you put together, the more points you get. Beware the high frustration levels when someone grabs the piece you want or moves the puzzle unhelpfully. Enjoy.
