You down with LLC?

May 30, 2005 20:00

Was part of the BEST GAME OF MONOPOLY EVERRR late Saturday night:

10:45 - Four players (Jesse, Jon, Josh, m'self) start out decently on American Edition Monopoly. I have a space shuttle; everyone else gets a pokemon piece.

11:45ish - Jon establishes himself as the leader. Jesse is doing alright, I'm being frugal. Josh spends almost all his money buying and setting up hotels on his prized Baseball and Basketball monopoly, demanding everyone land on it. NOW.

12:15 - Jon is whooping arses, trading wisely and building hotels. The phrase "dick whore" is invented.

12:45 - Jesse, Josh and I bond together as a limited liability corporation: we pool our money together and take separate turns. We're bent on bankrupting Jon.

12:50 - The LLC consolidates down to one piece. I'm the farthest, so we take that spot; however, Pikachu is far more awesome than the space shuttle, so we use him/her/it instead. We roll one die each. Still bent on bankrupting Jon at any cost.

1:15 - LLC is on the brink. To pay our debts (ANY space of Jon's we land on is worth more than what we have at this point), I start having to answer questions from the thus-far-ignored American history cards. One of the first, "Which patriotic film features Will Smith and Randy Quaid warding off aliens?" I accidentally answer with "Men in Black." Flatulence is shot my way.

1:45 - Jon still has us by the testes. Metaphorically. And he keeps landin

2:00 - Strangely, by mortgaging everything we have and answering questions about Thanksgiving and states that border Canada, the LLC starts gaining money.

2:15 - Not enough, though; Jon doubles us.

2:16 - Josh leaves giant stuffed animals in sexual positions for Jon to find when he emerges from the bathroom.

2:18 - With no more than a touch from me, the handle on the toilet falls off.

2:25 - We finish cleaning up (the Monopoly money) and leave.

2:35ish - After a good two hours of pretty much continuous laughter, I finally stop muttering "dick whore" and giggling.
