Tonight we played our first game of Monopoly as a family. Charles won.
He won on the measure: how many 1's do you have?
He won on the measure: how much money do you have overall?
He won on the measure: how much money are your properties worth?
Iain cried. Charles said, "It's just a game. You won on the measure of most monopolies [2]." Iain was unconsoled.
He said, "I want to turn the game off."
Like it was a video game.
Charles points out, it's not a board game (or a family game) without someone crying. Mommy dropped an F-bomb so everyone's performing up to expectations.
[ETA: Aaaannd the revisionism begins. Iain says, "well, at least I won." ??? "Well, I had the MOST MONOPOLIES."]
