Ruby Rose, Missy Higgins and Penny Wong. Who鈥檇 you shoot, who鈥檇 you shack up with and who鈥檇 you shag? Too bad if none of them deserve death, you must pick an option for each – and you can鈥檛 bang Ruby AND Missy. That鈥檚 greedy.
What about Lady Gaga, Lindsay Lohan and Amy Winehouse? I know, I know 鈥� wrongtown. Never mind that one of them has already passed on, imagine having to get intimate with Gaga or LiLo? Ewww.
Such is the fun of 鈥楽hoot, Shack or Shag?鈥� – the game that had a group of us girls crying with laughter at a housewarming party last weekend. The wronger the options, the better it is.
We were shrieking so loudly that some boys joined in which made it even more fun. Imagine hearing a burly straight guy justify why he鈥檇 have sex with Smurfette over Kevin Rudd鈥檚 wife, Therese Rein. Or hearing a gay guy confess that he鈥檇 turn straight for Whoopi Goldberg over Cameron Diaz, which even had the lesbians perplexed.
The best part of the game is the reasoning behind people鈥檚 decisions. I had to think long and hard when presented with three rock options 鈥� Peaches, Beth Ditto and Kelly Osbourne.
Generally the most obvious choice isn鈥檛 the smartest 鈥� sure Peaches might be the hottest but it鈥檇 be all about her. Beth Ditto is the coolest but I can see things getting too 鈥渓esbian鈥� too quickly. And Kelly would probably be the most annoying but she comes from rock 鈥榥鈥� roll royalty. So I decided to shag Beth, marry into Ozzy Osbourne鈥檚 fortune and shoot Peaches, just because unfortunately that鈥檚 the way it panned out. But she could probably pass it off as performance art so no, well only a little, harm done.
So back to Ruby, Missy and Penny. Can鈥檛 shoot Penny because she鈥檚 about to be a mum. I don鈥檛 fancy her for a one-night stand but I reckon she鈥檇 make good conversation – so looks like we鈥檙e shacking up. Ruby may be the poster girl for all things sexy but I鈥檝e been crushing on Missy forever so can鈥檛 be disloyal now. Sorry Ruby.
We realised the game was over when someone suggested Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.
I鈥檒l leave you with that thought.

I’d marry Penny too. Despite some obvious flaws, ive had a crush on her for years.
Shag Missy out of loyalty and unfortunately bury Ruby. I hope she’d understand though.
This game has passed many boring hours at work for us.
Gotta admit I’d go the same way. Couldn’t shoot Penny, but who could pass up Missy? I mean seriously. Noone. Sorry, Ruby.
