Monopoly- a type of entertainment in the form of a board game that can be played with multiple persons at a time, relating to finances and property. Not for the sorest of losers:)
Since I was able to have the day off from school today I kicked back at LOVINGPHUONG's house with a couple of other mates and together we built empires with our own counterfeit money. For a person who is absolutely hopeless at accounting, I was quite proud of my accomplishments. It got me thinking though, imagine everyone in the world, when born, started off with the same amount of money. Would famine still exist? Would there still be such things as third world countries? It would also depend on how people spend their money I'd presume.
What I don't get about monopoly is the 'Go to jail' bit. I don't get it. What wrong have you personally done? All you did was just land on it. Imagine that.
>It's a beautiful day. You go out for a stroll, you just recently bought property from the red area. Oh no what's that?? Why is that police officer chasing you??
You: 'Pardon me sir? Is there anything wrong?'
Officer: 'Go to jail >:('
You: 'Wha..what? Apologies for asking, but what wrong did I do?'
Officer: 'Go to jail! >:('
You: 'This is preposterous! I demand a reason!'
Officer: :D
Regardless, you end up going to jail anyway. Unless you roll doubles, you lose 500k paying for bail.<
It doesn't make any sense!! I mean, fraud can be a reason, but that's only if you pick it up from the 'chance' pile. Otherwise, what would the reason be??
I found the most perfect red dress for my role as Lady Capulet for the college production. It was waiting for me at the op shop today, huddled together with many other pulchritudinous findings. I also found a dress which is perfect for the Muse concert I'm attending to at the end of the year.
I'm feeling quite content.
Hope this feeling lasts.
Until next time.
xx
EDIT- beautiful boobied nibbles accompanied me during my trip to the op shop. She's just so lovely:)
LOL @ the convo with the officer, you funny woman. i like you :D ahhaahah yes i hope your fun lasts for a long time (L)
ReplyDeleteI may go into them all sometime:) But the person in question got a good roaring dose of "Spin The Black Circle" and full pelt ... that cleared my head immensely. And I think it her a world of good too =)
ReplyDeleteIn regards to you current post ... I guess the makers of the game thought that people wouldn't mind going to the slammer if all it took to bust them out was to roll a double. Then again, it could just be that things were a bit stricter back then when it was made and they wanted to remind people that life isn't all buying property and collecting 200 bucks every now and then. Either that, or they just couldn't think what else to put on that corner.
ReplyDeleteBy the way. Kudos on the dress.
Nice job on recognising the song, too. I know it's not a hard one, but when I mention that it's one of fav songs, most people think I'm talking about some kind of weird Gothic kissing game.
ReplyDeletei wasn't mentioned in the finding of the dress T T LOL joke. Had an awesome time. We should spend some more time in the changing room some time when your free again.^^^
ReplyDeletew/LOVE from apparently (boobied) beautiful mermaid nibbles
Get it? Spin the black circle? Spin the bottle? Black? Gothic? Anyways ... I'm glad that you're not ... that makes two of us :)
ReplyDeleteNo problem. Maybe I should make jokes with less wit and more farting in them ... farts take less explaining I would think. On the whole, anyway.
ReplyDeleteSBD's? Nah, not me. And a whooping great HA! Caught you! You didn't do your signature thingy :) Blam.
