Moral Dilemma: Scrabble Style

It has been a long time coming that I write a post about Scrabble.

You see, Scrabble and I go way back. My mom used to make me play Scrabble with her growing up. I think she had this idea that she was Qui-Gon Jinn and I was Obi-Wan Kenobi and I was going to be her Padawan learner (nerd alert.) It seemed that no matter what I did, Scrabble was inevitable. Thus, it was only a matter of time until I added the facebook application for Scrabulous. And then added the subsequent facebook application of Scrabble.

Right now, I am involved in what could be the Scrabble game of my life. Three superiors in my organization and I are playing a game of Facebook Scrabble. No big deal, right? It's just online Scrabble.

But there's a snag.

All the letters I've been getting this game can only spell inappropriate words. Like, words you could play if you were playing your best friend, but not work people. Like, the 4 letter variety. It's bad. I'm getting desperate. I mean, do I play the word and look kind of, um, freakish? Or do I hold back and possibly throw the game, which is somewhat against my Scrabble ethics? I feel like the Shoeless Joe Jackson of Scrabble. It's quite the moral dilemma.

Well, you know, as morally dilemma-esque as Scrabble can be.
