    My whole party used to die of dysentery before we made it to the end of the Oregon Trail. If only I had stocked up on salt pork instead of dress fabric.

    This is too easy. Any idiot could tell Becky would never be able to contribute enough to justify her place on the wagon, not with the piss-poor effort she gave in her last attempt at bear-shooting. And my god people her last name was Donner! How much of a sign could you possibly need – for her to have been born in a roasting pan? Hmmm? Moisturising with meat tenderizer, perhaps? Uch.

    The correct answer is: go hunting

    Which version of “Oregon Trail” did you play as a kid, anyway? Sheesh…

    I couldn’t shoot Becky. Need to save my bullets for hunting 952-pound buffaloes, even if I have to leave 852 pounds for the bunnies.

    I leave the gun and take the cannoli.

  • DMerriman said:

    Shoot Becky, of course. HAD to shut up all that damn whining.

  • wombatarama said:

    Come on – obviously the mule will be more useful than anyone else in the family, right?

  • Nancy said:

    wow – good to know I won’t be dying alone.

  • Jeremy D Brooks said:

    Elf needs food badly.

    What? Wrong game?

  • Jon Manlove said:

    Who said this was the Oregon Trail? This scenario happens in Walnut Creek all the time.

  • g pryor said:

    Amoebic dysentery or balantidial dysentery?

  • linda said:

    I didn’t realize this was an Oregon Trail thing. We never played that in NJ, but I keep hearing about it.

  • deedisms said:

    Ooooh…. did you ever play Landing Party? Spock or the Doc always got turned into a chicken or traded for penguins! So much better than Oregon Trail.
