I guess from the remark about Apples to Apples that they like proper games and not vaguely game-ish diversions, and beware that some of the list above are in the latter category.
Cthulhu Fluxx is the game that's been trying to get written in previous Fluxxes. I rather like it, and would try it even with people who aren't wild keen on Fluxx. It's become our standard Nerdvana beer-and-pretzels game.
Clare and I rather enjoyed 1805: Sea of Glory, but this really is a hardcore game for the sort of people who have old copies of Star Fleet Battles lying about the place.
If they like beer in their beer-and-pretzels, Family Business, and tell them the alcoholic rules.
Lord of the Fries is my favourite of the old Cheapass games, if still available. If they're filthy goths they might be amused by Gother Than Thou.
