Monopoly is a really bad 1-2 hours game but the absolute worst part is that everyone plays with dumb house-rules to make it last an entire afternoon. Really grinds my gears.
I never refuse to play Monopoly, I’ll just say I’ll gladly play if we play by the rules. The end result is the same, we never play it. I have never met anyone who wanted to play by the rules. Hell, I never found anyone who knew Monopoly had auctions or mortgage.
The game it was ripped off from The Landlord’s Game. It was created to show how landlords and rents were screwing the public and enriching the man at the top.

That’s exactly the point of Monopoly: Showing that capitalism leads to monopoly and misery, to those who have and those who have to pay for it.
Indeed, it’s amazing how prevalent the game is.

Never fails to get family members crying.
How do those Parker Brothers sleep at night?
