The Greatest Game Ever Played

Monopoly.

What other game has caused more strife and conflict in modern society than Monopoly? Maybe Risk, but a full game of Risk takes weeks and generally speaking people get frustrated with crap like that fairly quick unless you're Hitler. He went for two rounds.

Alright, anyway, let's get to the point. I've been playing an awful lot of Monopoly lately. By an awful lot I meant I mean almost nightly. If you've never had the privilege of playing Monopoly with people who make up House Rules on the fly, then you've never playing Monopoly.

One of the newest rules I've played with has been 'Amnesty.' Amnesty is basically when you tell someone that you're not going to charge them rent when they land on your property. What a genius scam eh? You can get something for literally nothing. Especially when you pull it out at just the right moment. Still though, this isn't the point the story I'm attempting to tell.

The real tale, is how this one lady pulled off trading rent she owed on territory for physical contests. Allow me to show you an example:

Here is a photo of this particular lady trading rent for an 'Indian Leg Wrestle' as it was called. I'll provide running commentary as it goes.

Here is stage one, the agreement of how to lock legs with which to wrestle with:

Here is stage two of the actual wrestling:

Here is stage three of the winner relaxing with his winnings:

Here is stage four of the loser declaring herself the winner and not paying her rent:

We all let her get away with it anyway. But I definitely would believe that this was NOT her first time playing monopoly as she claimed. I might also mention that she beat me at an arm wrestling contest for her rent. It was a little embarrassing but she paid me back with a peck on the cheek so I guess everything ended up almost in my favour.

In the end though the match came down to me and my roommate. He won in an underhanded victory. Basically the game could have gone either way at one point, and I had the luck to land on his only decent property, four times, which was Boardwalk and Park Place.

God Dammit.

Anyway, this post is mainly just me filling in some blog time. Next week I'm moving away. If I don't update for a couple weeks, don't be surprised. Hopefully though, I'll have lots of new pictures for everyone of that far off land of Alberta.

Here's some dirty filthy Hutterite porn for all you to tide you over.


Enjoy! Talk to you later!
