We used to do that with my mom. She’d get really angry if she lost any game. So the ‘game within the game’ was to throw the game to her without her suspecting.
I got on an arc trainer at the gym next to two twentyish girls who were deep in conversation. To pass time, I decided to count the times they said ‘like’. I quit after five minutes and 78 ‘likes’. I couldn’t keep up!
I have a solution for fussy cats: Eat what I give you or starve.
