Becky (walking in the house): Why does it smell like bacon?
Me (upstairs): It doesn’t smell like bacon, it smells like bummimn muubbmp.
Becky: Like what?
Me (yelling louder and coming downstairs): BUMMIMN MUUBBMP!
Becky: I still can’t hear you.
Me: Burning meeple.
Becky: Meeple?
Me: Yes.
Becky: No wonder I couldn’t make that out. Why does it smell like burning meeple?
Me: Cause I set a meeple on fire.
Becky: Why?
Me: To take a picture of it.
Becky: Oh.
Me: I lit it on fire in the fireplace. I’m not STUPID.
Becky: Well where is it?
Me: I soaked it in water and threw it away.
Becky: Why’d you do that?
Me: It was all burned up.
Becky: This doesn’t address why burned meeple smells like bacon.
Me: That I don’t know.
Here’s the picture:
is that meeple protesting the war?
Remember, only YOU can prevent meeple fires.
So, how many points do you get if you set fire to your Meeple in the middle of the largest field on the board, and throw a tiny, naked rave in honor of its burning?
Burnin’ Down the Meeple…
That *has* to go on BGG somewhere. A caption contest, perhaps? The convo w/ Mrs. Mancer is amusing.
