I think you're cheating. Bastage is not really a word!

Neither if fargin, or somanobach.

That was a funny movie!

Because that would get a lot of wives upset, since proper nouns are not allowed in Scrabble.

and hit two triple word scores in the process!

Believe it or not, I was playing a friend who I usually could beat. However, I was running about 60 points behind him. I had just drawn the last tiles from the bag when I realized that I had a word that I could play on the top row and hit both triple word scores as long as he didn't block me. I ruined his day when I scored 167 points (13 x 3 x3 + 50) on the last play of the game.

But adding an S, or ING, or ED to the end of one of her words always pissed her off. She said it was sort of like cheating.

I used them as blanks. In my defense, I only did it because I wanted to win.
