Fancy Nancy

K-Pop was strong-armed into playing the dreaded "Fancy Nancy" board game with K-bao.

As the game began, K-bao declared, "Whoever is the smallest gets to go first." This was said with such authority that K-Pop was initially stunned into silent submission.

After gathering his wits, K-Pop challenged this decree. K-bao promptly appealed to a higher authority. "That's what Mommy said. Go ask Mommy."

And that was only the beginning. As the game progressed, K-bao marched out a stunning array of rules, most of which just happened to benefit her position.

"It's [the spinner] stuck in the middle. Skip a turn!" "Give me that. You don't need it." "That's supposed to stay in the box."

Finally, K-Pop decided it was time to course-correct, and launched into a short lecture on the importance of love, respect and consideration, even in game-play.

At which point K-bao finally revealed her true colors. "Daddy, can you please just stop talking. I want to win!"
