Aren't alliances in Risk the greatest cause of familial violence? My older brother would always get one of my sycophantic sisters to join him in destroying my empires (which were always models of enlightened governance). Those were pretty much the only moments in my life when I have ever become enraged, like Curly in the boxing ring when someone played "Pop Goes the Weasel."
Shortly after my bro received his mission call last year, I thought of ratting him out to the brethren for the treacherous weasel that he is. But then I realized he was about to become scoutmaster for three years in a backward nation, and I decided vengeance was finally mine.
