After the seventh hour of playing Monopoly, anybody could get a little cranky.

Monopoly is actually a mean game--if you think about it. The point is to raise the rents sky high and slowly bankrupt the other players. It's way overrated as a game.

totally wasted opportunity here!

"She was released on $2,000 bail and ordered to appear in court on December 31." She did not pass Go, and she was not able to collect $200.
