Exactly, there is nothing more upsetting than losing a house and owing people money that you haven't got :crying:
There are few things worse in life than that awful feeling you get when you draw a Chance or Community Chest card that demands that you pay for street repairs -- this after you just spent a shitload of cash building houses and hotels and have no capital left. :hairpull: :hairpull: :cussing: :bang:
This is not surprising news. I've seen too many Monopoly games end in arguments and fights. Something about that game brings out the worst in those who play it.

WILL be the cause of World War III, I have not doubts ... you can put that in the bank! :eek:
-- At the Oval Office --
Kim Jong-il (
The North Korean leader slowly and deliberately counts each space as he moves his thimble around the board -- and landing on Pacific Avenue with a hotel): Ah, no! Goddamn it!
Obama: Ah hah, that will be $1,275 dollars, Kim.
Kim Jong-il: I don't have the money. Capitalist pig!
Obama: Let me be clear, while you can mortgage your railroads, it still won't be enough to cover the debt and I'll be forced to buy them.
Kim Jong-il (

YOUR debt anyways, Hah hah!!
Obama (
looking uneasily at Chinese leader Hu Jintao sitting across the desk): Could you perhaps loan me some cash to buy up Kim's properties? I'll pay you back, you know I'm good for it.
Hu Jintao: No! NO MORE! All your property belongs to me, so Kim gets to stay at Pacific Ave. for free.
Obama: Is that your final answer?
Hu Jintao and Kim Jong-il nod in agreement.
Obama (
gets on the direct line to SAC-NORAD): General? Yes, the time has come. The code word is Cupcakes. I repeat, the code word is Cupcakes. Set condition to Defcon 1. It's time for China to pay for some "street repairs."
NORAD general: Yes sir! Opening missile silo doors now, awaiting launch codes ...
