Shemp's Spoardic Challenge #2

What is the least impressive ending to the following:

"Hundreds of ..."

Please note we are not looking for anything necessarily negative or disgusting. The goal is to elicit an unenthusiastic "huh" from someone hearing the completed phrase.

That's a "huh", not an "ew."

The instigating phrase last night was: "Hundreds of ... baggies." Deflating, but is it the deflatingest? Only you can tell us!

[PS Challenge #1 is in buried in the post below; please go there to give us you Nerdliest Possible Board Game Title. ]

Five years, man. Also, five weeks.

All right, this is really rough, but at least a record of what got played in Early Fall 2012. Maybe I'll fill in a bit later, or someone else will in the comments.

This week I selected Traders of Genoa for our game, since, as I repeatedly stated, "It's been FIVE YEARS!"

Well, it wasn't five. It was four, so mea culpa on that. Still, a long time to go between plays.

PREVIOUSLY : Last week was 2 rounds of Smash-Ups, one w/ 3 players + 1 w/ 4. Also, Bios Megafauna.and For Sale!

PREVIOUSLIER : Game of Thrones Storm of Swords, yo. My wife thinks Storm of Swords is the nerdliest boardgame title possible. Feel free to suggest nerdlier possible titles in the comments.

EVEN PREVIOUSLIER : Roma, followed by Lord$ of Vega$, and I think a 3 of Vikings

PREVIOUSLIEST UNDER CONSIDERATION IN THIS ENTRY : Battlestar Galactica!
