I was once in a game of Monopoly where one of the players, I'll call him George, developed what we came to call the Gandhi Strategy.

About mid-game he realized that while he had properties, he was unlikely to reach a satisfactory trade to build a monopoly. So instead, he traded off his various properties to each of the other players, in exchange for free passage at any of their properties, utilities and railroads, for the rest of the game.

He continued playing the game, only collecting 200 for passing Go, but only paying the various Chance or Community Chest penalties, or the occasional income or luxury tax. He never accumulated much money, but with no rent to pay anywhere, he never went broke either.

The other players battled it out until only one other player was left standing, and George. The other player owned literally all the properties, utilities, and railroads, and had most of the money, but no matter how many times they went around the board he couldn't knock George out of the game, because... free passage for life.

Both players continued a while circling the board, neither paying rent, one because he owned everything, and the other who owned nothing, but had free passage. The each collected 200, and paid incidentals, but nothing really changed. They eventually called a stalemate. It is the only time I have ever seen Monopoly end in a tie.

I sat down this evening to do one of the dullest things one can do: delete photos on my phone to make room for more photos. Whilst deleting I found this gem:

Back before an OLD horticultural professor started pushing Daisies, he used to lament the loss of the last known orchid populations in the area. He treated them like ghosts, just as he would soon become, and he genuinely believed they'd never come back.

After they mounted a memorial plaque in the gardens with his favorite flower, Dahlias (irony abounds), I went searching for the "lost orchids". I tracked down another ancient professor and all they told me was "Find the tallest Cottonwood, take 300 large steps, and that's where they were last seen 20 years ago."

Wildly unhelpful. 3 years later, 1000 miles put onto my car, with hundreds of hiked miles later and I was able to track down the tree, 13 hours later I found the orchids.

Since then I have discovered 10 other populations here in dry West Texas. I was sworn to secrecy, but what I can tell you is:

Look for the old trees, they'll whisper secrets to whomever will listen.

With all the dull ecstasy of my pie yesterday, that can only be compared to my milkshakes bringing the boys to the yard, I give you another. This is more dull, it’s brisket, chorizo and butternut squash pie.

I will post the recipe in the comments later.

DISCLAIMER:- I am happily married.

Twenty or so years ago, my wife and I started a new present buying tradition when we decided that buying serious Christmas presents for each other was unnecessary and we’d just stick to birthdays for thoughtful gifts. This is when ‘The Great $50 Giveaway’ was born. The game goes as follows. We waddle down to our nearest slightly larger town where we take out $50 each. Then she goes one way, I go the other and we have up to two hours to buy as many presents for the other person as possible. Along with an abundance of new shops, this area also contains 5 charity shops (2nd hand goods are allowed), plus a supermarket (food is also allowable). While I do enjoy shopping, I especially enjoy this event as it stretches my imagination and creativity. Compared to my wife, some of my choices can seem a little dull although I’m always convinced every time (which is part of the game), that I’ve purchased more gifts than her. Alas though, I’m yet to win this aspect and my wife has always outshopped me in numbers. She still holds the record at 22 presents for $50. Inflation over the years has altered the game to some degree but the essence is still the same and we still enjoy the challenge. My wife informed me last night she’s managed 17 gifts this year, I’ve only yielded 13 but I told her I hadn’t yet counted because I’m miffed that yet again, she beat me.
I might add, to avoid unnecessary extra spending, the gifts are elegantly wrapped in newspaper.

Part of my dull existence is to avoid crowds and busy places like the plague. I do however enjoy camping. This time of the year, everywhere you go is packed with obnoxious families and sun seekers and you would not get to experience a dull night sitting outside your camp enjoying the serenity. So we just camp in the backyard. Because - let’s face it - the amenities are clean, you will never discover you have missed to bring an essential item (like a collapsible colander) and - should you get caught in a deluge (highly unlikely in Perth, AU) - you could just call it a night and go to your own bed. Also no annoying guitar circles, inquisitive Grey Nomads or partying bogans to spoil your peace.

Not sure if this is smart, dull or borderline sociopathic. Would like to know if others here have crowd-avoiding rituals they would share.

In April of 2023 my coworker found the red Swiss army knife in the parking lot of our office. He was very excited about the find and after examining all the different tools attached to the knife placed the item in the top left drawer of his desk. Coincidentally I found the yellow Swiss army knife in a backpack left by a coworker who retired a few weeks later. I decided that I should go in to my coworkera desk and replace the knife he found with the knife that I found to see if he would notice. After a few days I saw him pull the knife from the drawer and examine it but he made no comment about the color of the knife. The next day I switched the knives back to repeat the experiment. After a few days I did not witness him remove the knife from the drawer but I did notice him opening the drawer on several occasions. I began switching the knives approximately 2 times a week. In March of 2024 he was moved to an office down the hall and I have only been able to switch the knives once per month. He as of today February 2nd 2025 has made no comment about the knives. I will update further if there is a change in the situation.

This is Wengen (pronounced veng . gn), one of our two cats. He is what is known as polydactyl which literally means many toes.
I’m concerned many could find this interesting, but rest assured I’m going to try to send you to sleep with dull facts in the hope the admin are human and not in fact robots built by Elon Musk.
A “normal” cat has 18 toes, 5 on each front paw, 4 on each rear paw. Wengen has 26 toes, 7 on each front paw, 6 on each rear paw. The highest recorded is 28 toes, so close yet so far for Wengen.
Polydactyl cats aren’t particularly rare, but extra toes on each paw is not so common. Most polydactyl cats will just have extra toes on one or two, sometimes three paws.
History first records polydactyl cats in the 1800’s, sailors considered them lucky and experts at catching mice, and also more suited to keep their balance aboard a ship. I can confirm the latter part to be not always true, as Wengen is the clumsiest oaf I’ve ever come across.
Polydactyl cats are often referred to as Hemingway cats, Ernest Hemingway loved them and after his death his home was turned into a museum and home for them. Currently living there are about 50 descendants of his original cats, half of them polydactyl.
Wengen has a few nicknames including monster munch paws, and I call his rear paws rabbit kickers.
