I also knew what this was going to be before I opened it.

But of course at that point I'd already lost, so why not?! Grin

I'd only been going since the weekend anyway, after a run of about 18 months. Don't even know what made me think of it but I made sure DP lost too. He insists he isn't playing. Hmm

Does anyone else not have a clue what this means?

It's a silly game. The object of which is to forget that you're playing it. UNTIL SOMEONE LIKE OP RUINS YOUR MONTHS LONG STREAK!

I totally knew this was going to be about the game just from the thread title, and yet I still opened it. Why?

Same! 🤣🤣

Already lost at that point so might as well make sure you were right and hadn't lost for nothing.

Yeahrightthen · 18/01/2023 20:57

Is this like a secret sect - like the masons? 👀

If you know, you know kinda thing?

It's automatic, once you know it exists, you're playing Wink

By that time you’ve already lost.

hennythe100footbird · 18/01/2023 21:03

@Boiledbeetle nope! I haven't got a scooby either! 🤣

Downbutnotoutyet · 18/01/2023 21:03

Thank you OP. Been having a bit of a stressful time but you made me smile just now. As soon as I saw the thread title I just knew it would be this. You have helped as remember that it is good too not take everything too seriously. I will be annoyed with you in roughly five minutes though when I keep remembering over and over mind you.

You'll understand next time you see one of these threads and remember that you were playing a game you forgot about...

Downbutnotoutyet · 18/01/2023 21:05

Apologies for the shocking spelling and grammar.

@Downbutnotoutyet
I'm glad and thank you for saying as you've now cheered me up too. Even if we've both lost the game!
I hope things get better soon Flowers

Thank you for making me smile too I. I was doing so well, obviously without realising. 😂

Theimpossiblegirl · 18/01/2023 21:08

I knew it!
But I still opened it.

Now I've just lost the game too.

But at least I'm not a miserable fucker.
