In an ideal economy - social democratic or capitalist - housing would expand to meet the demand generated by a growing, thriving population, so this failure must lie somewhere beyond the usual scapegoats of "the market" or "the state" in some unseemly hybrid of the two. That is why it is called Monopoly, Aunt Carol, and that is why you will pay.

"it is not simply a question of where," I said, settling back in my chair, pipe in hand. "the where has been obvious from the beginning. likewise the how leaps out to the keen observer, and with that particular detail," I paused a moment to take another puff, "the who comes inevitably, as night follows day. no, these were never mysteries. what I have struggled with is the why, and I will admit to teetering on the edge of despair. yet I had an instinct, and it led me to relentlessly pursue a memory--a sordid tale of a room uncleaned and an allowance unpaid." my eyes narrowed and my expression hardened. "sound familiar cindy? it should! long have I noted your jealousy at my pokemon cards and popsicles, the wages of the virtuous, but I never thought it would bring you to this sordid end--strangulation in the dining room, the heart of our home!" a wail of sirens became audible in the distance, quickly growing louder. "it was all in the clues! and now that they have been read, you will pay!"

...finally, after hours of careful preparation and planning, after making sure all the connections were in place, after doing one last sound check, I was ready. The other elements had only recently come to pass- crucial to my plan, yes but not my magnum opus, my piece de resistance. The dice were cast. There they lay on the table for all to see. With a satisfying 'click!' I energized the circuits, hearing- NO! f e e l i n g them come to life with crackling malicious energy. Raising the microphone to my lips I sneered before I let loose my victorious battle cry to decimate my family, my foes as I shouted...

Tomorrow I will see to it the the chainsaw is well-oiled and fueled up. I hear we may be playing Jenga...

The air is heavy and not only from the crushing summer heat.
A bead of sweat, a squinted eye, "Go fish."

Fact: We have lost most of the pieces from most of the games
Fact: We have sampled all the fruits of Messrs. Milton and Bradley
Fact: Game night must continue
Proposal: I give to you Mouse Trap Extreme. Your Mother and I have assembled the corpses of our other board games into a superior game - a Frankengame, if you will. Please consult your rule binders. Festivities begin in 24 hours.

Beating a tiny fist against his chest, "I'm the hungriest!"

Got a new game called "Vietnam." Half the rules are in Russian and there's no win condition, but I can't stop playing.

Some aliens abducted/adopted me and then we played some Farkle.
I didn't enjoy being kidnapped, I enjoyed learning pinochle from the kidnappers. That's very different.

Thing One is passed out in the bathtub, Thing Two is hiding in the laundry basket.
Cat In The Hat: "We really need to be going, I've got work--"
Dad: "Face me in Tecmo Bowl, you coward."

I think we can all agree when I say what Facts is trying to say is that it was about being abducted/adopted by space aliens, and then taught the greatest game the universe has ever known to be in existence; American Space Football
FInally someone is talking sense
