when I was a kid, i doubtlessly called this stupid and unfair

I played Monopoly last night for the first time since I was a little kid. My childhood memories of how long that game takes were not exactly hyperbole. Monopoly hunts entire weekends down and ruthlessly strangles them.

Because I was not yet employed the last time I played, I didn't notice the gallows humor of Go (players get paid $200) being immediately followed by Income Tax (players pay $200).
