Anyone else hate playing any sort of card or board games with friends?

Depends on who I am with. I like them if I am comfortable with the people enough. I like board games, and can tolerate some card games (I am just not a huge fan of them in general.)
Games can be okay with newish people - so long as they don't make a fool out of me. If it's a game where I can think a bit or word games, I am okay with them. But games where I look like a jack ass, have to act, or be quick-thinking- forget it!

I'm a bit weirder in that I don't play/know any card games at all... a sure sign of never having socialized and/or enjoying being an alien. On the other hand I've played board games with friends online every once in a while and enjoyed it, so I imagine it wouldn't be a problem in person either.
I'll challenge you to a game of reversi/othello, since it's the only board game I ever win at.

No, I LOVE playing board games. Unlike with social interaction, the rules come with the box. And whenever I feel awkward I can act as if I am concentrating on my next move. And most important they are just plain fun.
Favourites: Roborally, Once upon a time (only with very close friends) and Pictionary. (Getting happy by just thinking about playing)

Well that's the kind of skill that can win you all sorts of games. Whenever you're behind, pull out the ouija board and threaten to summon a legion of zombies from their graves if your opponent doesn't let you win.
I bet I could lose to you at chess, though. It takes me about 10 moves to lose to the computer on the very easiest setting, and I struggle to win after editing the board to give me a dozen queens... projecting future moves is too much work.
