It comes every week without fail … Hump Day. And with it the midweek blahs. I’m talking about the feeling you get when your body realizes there is too much week left before your next weekend. It can be downright depressing if you give in to it.

Remedies for midweek blahs were few and far between. Imagine everyone’s surprise when famed Web Master Wade discovered Buzzword Bingo! It successfully vanquished Hump Day from the vocabulary of the Interactive team.

Every week, the resident web geeks gather for a friendly – sometimes rowdy – game of Buzzword Bingo. Themes have ranged from Movies That Should Never Be Sequels to Board Games if You Were a Kid in the ’80s to Family Guy.

With their eyes fixed on the prize (a candy bar from Mary’s secret stash), the team gathers around to play. Spirits are high. The anticipation is thick enough to slice with a knife as each buzzword is called. Then it happens – someone yells BINGO! and the crowd goes wild.

Although not quite Dante’s depiction of gnashing of teeth, you don’t want to be in the mix when a winner is identified. Gauntlets are thrown, words are exchanged and accusations of cheating are made.

A Buzzword Bingo regular was quoted as saying, “I was so close. Just one more and I’d be the winner instead.” Tough break, kid.

In the end, to the victor goes the spoil and the rest of the web geeks live to play Buzzword Bingo another Hump Day.
