OP I’m not sure how to put in names so sorry about that but my user name is very apt. It is moments like this that remind me of fun and I honestly find the frustration of this game just brilliant. Glad I cheered you up just as you did me. Worth losing just for that.

What am I missing? What’s going on?

MillenialAvocado · 18/01/2023 21:10

Aww I'd been on a winning streak since 2010 ☹️

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!

Seriously? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

ElspethTascioni · 18/01/2023 21:16

The rules of the game are very simple. As soon as you know about the game, you are playing the game. Every time you remember you are playing the game, you lose the game. That’s it.

I’ve been playing the game for at least 30 years now, it had been several years since I last lost though…😂

ElspethTascioni · 18/01/2023 21:17

And I should have said - a key part is to say “I just lost the game” anytime you remember ythe game, because it automatically means that anyone in the vicinity who is playing the game, loses too…

Wooptie fucking ping.

Brainfogmcfogface · 18/01/2023 21:27

I lost when I read the title and I still opened the thread, damn it!! Was on a good few months there…

L1ttledrummergirl · 18/01/2023 21:28

I lost after scrolling past a few times, the penny dropped. Damn you!Grin

Bonjovispyjamas · 18/01/2023 21:30

I only thought about it a couple of weeks ago, so not too much damage done 😜

How bizarre 😏

There really are some miserable cunts on MN! 🤷‍♀️

OP, we were in the Apple shop yesterday and DD17 added a note to one of the iPads that said “you lost the game”… I’m sure she ruined someone’s day 😬

They have haven't they! Last one I saw was maybe 2 years ago. It was a fun filled call the OP a cunt in jest!

It was, think the last few years has properly brought out the snarl in more people than the usual.

Am I the only one who think this whole “game” thing is a bit pathetic.

”oooo … I’ve made you think of something by saying a word” .. give yourself a big pat on the back 🙄

😂😂😂

Totally agree

People commenting “FFS OP you’ve got me!”

How sensitive/dim do you have to be to get riled up by a word.

No, you're quite right. I'm not sensitive though, just extremely dim.

I don't think anyone is actually riled up... it's beyond lighthearted Confused

Does anyone else not have a clue what this means?

Me.
