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

When this began - when did this begin? - it was a game. A game: one decision after another after another after another, until we'd made every possible choice and began to make impossible ones. Was it the boy (the brother), his name so long forgotten, that started it? He built the machine. Was it the girl, and it's possible she never had a name, that started it? She used the machine first. It was the mother, the father, as they merged into one in our minds, creator/destroyer, a single thing that began the game and ended it, but can we say they started this? They dismantled the machine, but by the time they did it was no longer bound by physical form. I think - "I," "I," "I," as though the self was anything but an abstraction, a convenience - that it was the infant, unformed potential, who started it. He/she/they revealed to us what lived in the hearts of stars. |

Sweat beaded on Aunt Gladys' furrowed brow. "Who suspends a bathtub on poles like that? Rube Goldberg was an idiot!" she thinks but dares not speak. She knows, the children rung around the yellowing kitchen table know, everyone knows that if this stupid trap doesn't work at least once, then the whole weekend was lame. Lame. Aunt Gladys would not have it. The greatest entertainer of Polkabarrel county steeled her grip of the colorful miniature plastic bowling ball for the eighth time and this time by God, it was going to work. |

FactsAreUseless posted:It isn't anything lmao, I wrote it in two minutes. It's just an improvisational writing exercise. lol, I thought you were going for a pastiche of parker brothers games (hence the "brother"). like referencing the dispute over "who invented monopoly", the use of hearts and stars in careers, babies in the game of life, etc. never let authorial intention get in the way of a good theory, that's my motto |

"You think this is a game?!" My wife bellowed. "Uno." Was all I could meekly reply. She looked down at my Draw Two card, pondered for a moment, and threw her hand on the table. "I want a divorce." She said. She always said that when she lost. This time she meant it. |
