Based off of the Monty Python skit, I've finally come up with a forum game of my own. The premise of the skit is that four wealthy men are conversing about their childhoods, but it soon leads to each one attempting to 1-up the other by saying how much worse their lives were, and the reality dies quite quickly.
The rules of this game are just that. Find one aspect of the complaint about yours, and then provide an aspect (preferably made up) of your "childhood" that was worse then theirs.
Example:
Opening Complaint--
Y'know how bad life was for me? I had to get up at 4:00 AM every morning just to make sure my 12 brothers and sisters didn't use up all of the water.
1st Response--
You even had water? Well, lucky you. I had to get up at around 2:30 AM to run down to the river to wash myself. If I was lucky, I'd get back home in time for a continental breakfast of 1 hard biscuit. Without any milk.
2nd Response--
That's funny, because I had to run to the 20-gallon-at-biggest lake to filter the water of the various diseases developed over the previous 24 hours, splash it on my body, then filter the water AGAIN to put it back into the lake. And I had to do it EVERY MORNING. 2 mile distance. Uphill. BOTH WAYS.
The next one to post can go ahead and respond to the 2nd response here.
1 – GalliumGrantOh, you're living in luxury! My brothers shoved cellophane down my throat morning, noon and night, and made me dress like a woman! Then I'd have to take an hour-long shower in either blazing hot or ice-cold water and end up 3 hours late to school, and the authorities thought I was frequently truant and whipped me every afternoon!
