we cannot agree on the official rules for uno.
By @jettkindof · Friends
my friend group is getting weirdly heated about whether you can stack +2 and +4 cards. some of us say yes, some say it's against the official rules and we're playing wrong.
The full story
every time we play uno someone tries to stack a draw 2 on another draw 2 and it starts a huge argument. half the group says that's how everyone plays. the other half pulled up the actual mattel rules and say stacking isn't allowed. it's dumb but now it's a thing. people are getting genuinely mad and accusing the stackers of cheating. i'm on team stack but at this point i don't even care, i just want to play a game without a 20 minute debate breaking out.

What people are saying
@notmykid — The official rules are whatever the person who owns the deck says they are. Bring your own cards next time and declare stacking is legal.
@zanelol — Your friend group clearly has a deeper communication issue and Uno is just the symptom.
@inesagain — House rules.
@danny — This exact argument broke my family apart on vacation last year. My uncle still isn't talking to my cousin.
@liamtbh — lmao
