Yes indeed. The famous board
game, even though it's for
kids, was not called "Buy all the properties so as to extort colossal rents"
BTW coming from a different part of the Anglosphere, it's strange to see "bathroom" used as an instance of plain
English, on any vessel which doesn't actually boast an actual bath.
It's even funnier (and arguably further still from plain English) to hear of Nth American
kids on a
game safari saying in hushed, horrified tones "those lions are going to the bathroom at each other"
What's wrong with good old "having a p*ssing contest"?
