The Wednesday ritual when we get home from work is based on an "article" in the local paper. The columnist lists good and bad things from the week and they can be anything. Really, we've seen a range of topics.
The ritual involves whoever has the energy to snag the paper first reading out the items one by one and the other has to decide whether it's a thumbs up (which emits a grand "yayyy!!!") or a thumbs down (which elicits a deep "boooo!!!") with applicable hand signals. It might sound like it's an easy game but sometimes the stories are tough to follow.
Here is a sample from this week:
The best part of this one is that it was published on Dec 12th! Not only cool because it was 12.12.12 but if you read the last thumbs down, you have to wonder how she avoided Christmas stuff this far into December anyways and when does she expect it to start, Dec 24th?
So that's what people get incensed about, and stoked about, in this part of the world. Or I shouldn't say "people" because it's just one person.
So what are your thumbs up/thumbs down moments this week?
