It’s Monopoly Night!
A few weeks ago the woozles and pooties debuted Game Night here at the Wednesday Evening Thread. So unplug those devices because we are going old school with classic board games. And
tonight it’s Monopoly!
A couple days ago I heard a radio report that Milton Bradley is introducing a new version of the classic game. There are quite a few limited edition games already, like the London or Boston version. There are simply versions for younger players. One edition even features super heroes. This new version is aimed at Millennials, who apparently find the old game too time consuming. The rules have been modified and so have the goals of the game. Instead of acquiring properties and building hotels like greedy capitalists, the new Monopoly has players purchasing and/or winning “experiences.”
Well, pooties and woozles like a fast paced game, too. They also enjoy a variety of experiences. And they still appreciate the classic Monopoly.
But before play commences, sit back and read the instructions on the box, because we need to pause and review the Peeps rulz:
- Do not “Troll” the Pootie Peeps Diaries. If you don’t like animal diaries, there’s no need to tell us about it. Just go find some other diary more to your liking.
- Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly. So, no pie fights please.
- If you would like a pic from the comment threads, please ask the poster. He/she may have a copyright to those pics. Many thanks!
- There are some pics we never post: 1) snakes and creepy crawlies (some folks have phobias). 2) Any and all photos that depict or encourage human cruelty toward animals, even in jest, are considered “out of bounds” and will not be tolerated.
- If you’re not sure about an issue...please ask. Someone is always glad to help.
- Links to the Community Needs List or other fundraising diaries are always welcome here. Just links with a short explanation, please, and not the entire fundraising request, per the management.
PWBPeeps posts two diaries a day for animal lovers: a daytime diary at 1:45 pm Eastern and a nightly open thread at 10 pm Eastern. We concoct silly stories, share photos, seek & give advice about pet health and behavior issues, support each other in times of sadness and stress, celebrate together when times are good, and on most days have an inordinate amount of fun.
You are welcome to join us! Be kind to one another, we’re all in this together.
This is an open thread.
Our winning woozle is magnanimous in victory. So it’s noms and treats for everyone. The blog is now open.
