This was made during the "stranger danger" moral panic, so I expect that "you see a strange dog or cat in your neighborhood" might have even been meant as a "don't get lured in by a stranger who has an animal"
A lot of people in the 90s still kept their dogs outside chained to a dog house or run, or in a pen. Idk, I guess they could get loose more easily. I remember being taught to stay away from dogs running loose and to not walk up to a strange dog because they could be vicious, and bite or attack you.
When I was little (around 5-6) I went to pet the neighborhood cat and it scratched me and gave me CSD. You can enjoy cats from far away, but only pet them if they’re indoor-only pets.
Lmao. Link is so morbid but he made me laugh so hard. Rhett - “You are at the beach and can’t find mom and dad” Link - “Clearly they both drowned” lmao. Love it
Some dogs that wag their tail might still be aggressive and you should ask their owners if it is safe to pet it. That is good advice. Some dogs wag their tail because they are nervous. Better safe than sorry.
Perhaps they have dementia, or perhaps they're involved in a feud with either you or someone else and will cause physical or economic harm if given the chance?
I’m honestly surprised his kids have never made that mistake before. I learned a lot of things by doing them lol. I once put a hot dog in the microwave for 10 minutes until it stopped working. Never did that again lmao
I recently put in a bowl that had a pattern of gold hexagons on it and it started sparking. I didn't assume the paint had real metal in it, now i know 😂😂😂
I always lost my mom lol. One time they had to shut the store down in the mall to look for me lol. I escaped from strollers and continued the wandering as I got older. Clearly this was my problem lol
I never got separated from my parents. But I remember vividly one time walking into a Target and throwing up immediately because I was sick; then looking directly up and seeing myself on the store security camera screen in front of a pool of vomit.
I leave this comment a lot, but if you haven't seen it, I recommend Googling "The Chaster Bunny". (Gotta search on Google because it's unlisted on YT.)
Does anyone else wonder if they was a period of time that rhett and link got mad at each other and stopped talking for months or years? They've been friends since 2nd grade. There must have been times when that happened.
I don’t remember this game and I know my family hasn’t played it but my mom gave me a bunch of cards and some of them are from this game. I got those cards when I was 10 and it has taken 14 years to learn what they were from
Someone in my class put foil in our classroom microwave. It caught fire, and they grabbed it (the sandwich with foil) and ran down the school hallway trying to find the teacher with it on fire it was crazy
In an oblique fashion, this game is also illuminating privilege: the accumulation of “option” cards is a metaphor for the options in life that make all the difference in outcomes. We are not all born with the same opportunities/options in life, and some of us lose options while others gain options. BOOM. This game should be required to be in every household. Or rather, an updated version, and even event or situation specific editions.
Definitely a great game, building common sense skills based on instinct. In the back of your mind you know what the "right" answer would be but you have to use the cards that you have been dealt... teaches a lot subconsciously.
