I just found out that the word "to count" in Russian (which is effectively how the game Shithead is played) is pronounced "Shchitat" .... could this be a coincidence? I think there maybe something interesting in the game's origins maybe from Russia? Maybe it is not originally from Finland .... Just a thought. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.145.189.13 (talk) 18:51, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
Ed, I don't think creating articles to score points in a debate is a good idea. --Stephen Gilbert 18:16 Sep 23, 2002 (UTC)
Your trailed-off sentence makes me doubt your sincerity. Ed, the point is not that fuck is a vital and necessary article that absolutely must stay, but rather someone put quite a bit of work into it and it had at least some useful content. To unilaterially delete it without discussion was a mistake. Ok, it's four in the morning here in Korea; I should go to bed. Good night... or afternoon... it's so hard to keep track of everyone's time zone... --Stephen Gilbert 18:43 Sep 23, 2002 (UTC)
Why is this just about the game shithead? Why not also about the expletive? Or of the use of "shithead" to refer to certain breakfast cereals? It seems there are many legitimate uses of "shithead."
Not sure why there was mention of the Norwegian Idiot - it was known by both names when I was at sixth form, in 1992 sheridan 01:18, 2004 Dec 24 (UTC)
Not having played any of these, can someone explain to me why we have separate articles at President (game) and Shithead (card game), and why Asshole is listed on the aliases for both? -- nae'blis 01:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
I have played both President and Shithead, and I can tell you that the only similarities between them are that they both focus more on who loses than who wins; they both require you to play cards of equal or higher value than the last play, and that certain cards have special functions. I believe Asshole is another name for President, and not for Shithead, but there does exist a lot of confusion on the issue. I'm going to look at these articles again and see if I can clear anything up. Dansiman 03:43, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
I have seen a rule common in the UK whereby if 3 of the same value (not suit) are put down together, possibly by three different players! then if another player should have the 4th card no matter where they are in the order of play, then if they are quick enough they can slam it down, clear the deck and possibly win the game OR its their go next. I think a clearer version of this rule should be added perhaps. --I love football 1982 22:31, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Grammatical correction. On the first line of the article it states that the game is known as "shed". This should be "sh'ed", as in an abbreviation of "shit head". This word is still pronounced "shed".

As the title states, there seems to be significant similarities (among many the name). 62.202.189.191 (talk) 16:30, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
One of my competitive buddies will just pick up the deck even if he can play for “strategy”. How are we going to address this? I might’ve missed this in the rules but he is saying if it isn’t stated outright that he has to play if he can, then he is in the clear. Please advise.
