Does anyone know of a card game called Sh*t Head?

The game consists of 3 cards face down, 3 on top of them and 3 in your hand. 2's and 10's are like wild cards. Each player lays a card in ascending order until a player can't beat it, they then pick up all the cards. This goes on till all players except one have got rid of thier cards. The player left with cards is the Sh*t Head!! A friend of mine claims to have invented the game, and I've never met anyone who has played it before 1990 which would make my friends claim more plausable and valid!

    Played sh*thead loadsa times still do now and again rules are always changing depending on who I'm playing. I reckon your mate might of made name up (sh*thead) but it prob was called something else before that.

    This sounds a bit like Screw your neighbor or **** on your neighbor. A card game I learned over 25 years ago which is played along the line of Uno, and or hearts card game. Cards are played in decending, ascending or follow suit of played card. First person out of cards wins.

    I have played a similar game. Except it is called IDIOT!!

    2s are wild, 10's start the pile over (but you lose your turn)

    and 7s reverse the direction of play. pairs are worth more than singles (a pair of 3s will beat an ace).

    I don't remember when I first played it, but it must have been early 90s. My friend said that his family had played it for years.

    I played it!! :D

    I was visiting a friend in Stoke, Staffordshire. It was about 1999 or 2000.

    First time I ever heard of it, and no one at my school had. I've never come across it since. But, the lad i was playing it with claimed to have invented it :-/

    Played sh*"t head in Magaluf in 1991 (give or take a year) on the balcony with lots of vodka - great game - never played it since though!!

    Does your mate live in the cheshire area? If so - he may have invented it??????
