CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

USA Today reports:



Monopoly for Millennials — the recently released version of the classic board game — centers around the often-mocked generation of people born between 1981 and 1996. The cover features Monopoly icon Rich Uncle Pennybags with a cup of coffee, earbuds and a medal labeled “participation.”

The tagline on the cover reads: “Forget real estate. You can’t afford it anyway.” Instead of collecting money, players will be collecting experiences as they traverse the board. These experiences include “Parents’ Basement,” “Thrift Shop” and “Farmers’ Market.”

“Money doesn’t always buy a great time, but experiences, whether they’re good — or weird — last forever,” says the game’s description on Walmart’s website. The description also notes that “adulting is hard.”
