My neighbor is an ungrateful jackass
 

Yesterday we decided to play a round of monopoly with some friends that came over. He was bankrupt and I found it in the kindness of my heart to give him some money ( I was winning at the time). He gladly accepts it says a nice "thank you" he then proceeds to make a deal with said money with another player that leaves me bankrupt and out of the game. Has this or something similar happen to any of you?

You know, you can't really blame him. Isn't the object of ANY game to win?

EDIT - Oh right, on topic. The day Halo 2 came out, i was going out to go get it. Since my brother was going to the same store i was going to go, i asked him to pick one up for me. Instead he comes home with it, hands my money back to me, and tells me i'm not allowed to play it because its HIS game.

I'm the king of Monopoly. I rule monopoly with a iron fist. MWHAHHAHAHAH. Any how I was playing Halo 2 and I was rocking at it when my brother come up and said That I had a phone call so I went down stairs and answered and before going down I said, "No one kill me ok!" they said "ok" I went down stairs and talked for a minute and I come back and they made a game out of killing me. They where seeing who could kill me first.

No seriously I mean they really should change the name from "Monopoly" to "Fuck The Other Guy Over, As Hard As You Possibly Can."

Or as I like to call it, "If You Ain't Cheatin', You Ain't Tryin'!"

Just for starters - the next time you're banker and someone asks you for money? The correct answer is "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA no but seriously fuck you."

Fifthfiend, you didn't change the name there. You just defined "monopoly".
Regardless, I have to try this.

Uhm yeah all those times i lent my brother money and then leaves me with late fees. Also monopoly is more fun with REAL money.

First rule of business - "Playing nice gets you nowhere." Normally I'd be more sympathetic, bearded one, but this is Monopoly we're talkin' here, and you did the one thing you *never* do in a game of Monopoly - give the other guy a fighting chance. The game is MONOPOLY, after all, not Fair-trade Capitalism.

As far as being screwed in a game by trusting someone else goes, it's happened to me plenty of times. I can't begin to tell you how many games of StarCraft I've lost while playing with friends due to taking a bathroom-break and trusting them not to annihilate me while I'm away. I once came back to find four carriers and three arbiters poised over the ramp to my base, waiting until I'd returned so I could watch them systematically raze my fledgeling Zerg colony.

EDIT: Internal grammar Nazi demanded proper capitalization of terms.

Monopoly is a cruel game. You either make a stair out of their head or they do yours.

Sounds a lot like real life to me. =P

As for myself... Let's just say that it usually take me ages to complete a round due the "Go to Jail" cards in the Chance pile. It took me a while to realize that the guy that always put the cards back always put the "Go to Jail" right on the top.

My neighbor is a total jackass too, and here's why:

1. They have FOUR cats that roam the neighborhood having sex and getting into fights and being worthless in general. They like to jump up on my cars just to make the alarms go off. Seriously, i've seen it happen. One day i'm gonna mix cat food and rat poison in a styrofoam bowl and leave it on their front porch.

2. Their kids run around the neighborhood unsupervised when they technically belong on leashes. One day i went outside and saw them eating off of one of my cars like it was a dining table. With plates and everything. And when they were done I found a big freaking sticker stuck on it. WTF?. one day i was sitting INSIDE one of my cars and one of their kids came up within three feet and kicked it with a soccer ball. WTF?!? I have to leave a shitty car at the bottom of the driveway as a shield so when they play incredible crash test dummies with their bicycles they don't do it on a good car. I get them back when they leave their toys out in my yard I chunk them as far as I can over my house into a field.

3. I work on cars sometimes, and if i ever bring a car that has an expired sticker, by the next day, they've made a phone call and I have a sticker on my windshield about BS neighborhood cleanup that basically says they're going to tow my car because they're douchebags. One time i had to leave a refrigerator out overnight in front of my garage doors and the next morning there was a sticker on it that said they were going to take that too.

4. they come over asking for help sometimes, and I do it because I'm hoping they'll lay off the bullshit for a change, but no. I help him fix his stupid car and the next day my car has a sticker on it because one of the tires were low and it is making their neighborhood ugly somehow.

5. i hate their guts and i'm this close to setting something on fire and throwing it through their window. Perhaps one of their cats.
