These are amusing.

I thought it was great that he used the actual but often overlooked rule that unpurchased property goes immediately to auction. I bet a lot of viewers thought, "Well, he IS kind of making up the rules." Slash perhaps that sketch was also commentary on how that rule got ignored in a lot of families ("This is confusing...." "I'll just go.").

Weirdly, that's the second variation on that concept that I've come across in the last day or two. Well done, though.

I'm enjoying the occasional videos that are meta-jokes about obnoxious commenters.

Thanks for sharing! These are cool. And this one on "freedom of speech" is just perfect.
