The joke is a reference to hangman, where most of the players try to guess the letters in a secret word, and every time they guess wrong another limb is added to the figure in the hangman's noose. With a big enough party playing, the guesses sometimes turn into shouting matches.
Funny joke.

Sounds like I'd need to know what else he was talking about before he said that. No wait....he'd yell out letters as if he was playing the game 'hangman'.

Sorry youngmug....went to edit and came back and you had the answer.

lol they are referencing the game hangman............lol. C'mon don't you get it. You have played hangman before? Right? You draw a part of the person each time you miss a letter

hahahhaha

it means that the person would look like they were playing hangman. you know the word game where you need to guess letters to guess the word? you type in a letter and if its wrong the hangman loses a limb?

you know, in hangman, when you yell out letters, and every time you guess wrong, you add a limb.

LoL xD...

Amputee hanged... he's playing real life... mmm forgot the name of the game O___O the one where you have to guess the word the other person writes, letter by letter, every wrong answer gets you one limb closer to being completely hanged xD

Have you ever played the game "Hangman?" It's a small game played with 2 people on paper. First you draw the base of the game - the hangman's platform & noose. One person makes up a word or phrase that is at least 7 letters. Draw _ for each letter underneath the hangman's tree. The other person guesses a letter. If the letter is not in the word or phrase you begin by drawing the head. The other person guesses again. If the letter is not there, another body part - neck, shoulders, each of 2 arms, toro, and 2 legs - is drawn. If the letter is in the word then it's placed in the appropriate spot: rabb_ _ _ar_. The trick is to guess the phrase before you are hung.

Google "Hangman game". You can play against the computer.

I love that one..meaning he's playing a game of hangman
