morgankobi January 28, 2015 Share January 28, 2015 (edited) In case you've never played, it goes like this: The first person posits a "last person alive" scenario such as, "If I was the last person on Earth, I would gather all the books I could and read for the rest of my life in peace and quiet." (I mean, I have to use that for an example, right?) The second poster corrupts that scenario Monkey Paw-style (or, Twilight Zone style) and then makes their own scenario/wish: "Yes, but then your glasses break and you can no longer read. If I was the last person alive, I would set-up camp in the White House and re-enact episodes of The West Wing."
