Playing Monopoly.

aww, excellent.

(Yes--though it's sometimes a bit of a challenge to untangle how things have drifted since I last looked. I never played World of Warcraft but know what a raid is in that context; apparently a "Twitch raid" is rather friendlier, swarming people to give them pageviews, more or less. Reason said only, "What's a raid?" and I was like ... context pls?)
