Like an Easter egg hunt at a chicken-pox ward, billiards asks you to pocket striped orbs while trying not to scratch. Keep your mind on the game with today's Groupon tp The Corner Pocket in Williamsburg. Choose from the following options:
- For $31, you get two hours of pool and three appetizers for 4 people (up to a $62.85 value).

The Cornet Pocket lodges pool sharks, upscale-pub-grub imbibers, and dart sharpshooters in a hybrid pool-hall-cum-restaurant environment. Adjoined to the dining chambers, a billiards room shelters 13 Connelly drop-pocket tables flanked by cue-wielding participants and dejected 16 balls watching each round. The Corner Pocket's appetizer menu dispenses a wide array of upscale pub-style appetizers including cornmeal-fried wings slathered in sweet and spicy chili sauce ($9.95/full dozen), waffle fries drenched in melted-cheese dip and scallions ($6.50), and turrets of beer-battered onions rings ($5.95).
Beyond billiards, the space boasts four dart boards, seven flat-screen TVs, and a 10-foot projection screen broadcasting the latest sporting contests or celebrity thumb-war tournaments. An array of local and nationally touring musicians frequently graces The Corner Pocket's stage; patrons can consult the event schedule for a list of upcoming performances.
The Corner Pocket's rates fluctuate throughout the week.

The Groupon Guide to: Siblings

Your favorite way to influence the future is by:
a. Organizing your son's social studies binder
b. Deconstructing Lego cities built by children to teach them to doubt the establishment
c. Chewing!
Your workout routine involves:
a. Bench-pressing smaller humans
b. Contemplating
c. Running on a metal wheel!
It's dinnertime. You take your place:
a. At the head of the table. Everyone in the family will be excited to hear you regale them with the story of how you won today.
b. In your bedroom. Watching your family members chew makes you sick.
c. In the food bowl! Hopefully you'll be able to pick out some of those delicious sunflower seeds!
If you could redecorate your home you would:

b. Burn the thing down
c. Add more tubes!
Answer key: If you picked mostly As: You're the eldest sibling, congratulations! Your assertive type A personality makes you a leader in the family and a difficult person to watch television with.
