There are the parents who will hide the RNG determining their marriage, and then there are the ones who just do it in front of the kid. Pretending to care wins this one.

Did you seriously choose that over A DEFECTIVE CONDOM?
You know what? Fine. Be that way. I'll just sit in the fetal position inside my little box over here I have in the corner and let my D10 do the talking from now on. Because that's the only reason I have one point, it's because I used a D10 on the one round I did win, the one with the spaceship.
I'm not funny, but the D10 is, apparently.

This was how I felt the first game I played of this, as I also did not receive many cards. (This being the second time I've played this)
It's why I pushed for winner judges over rotating judge, but I think rotating judge at least allows everyone to affect the game and Man in the Mists' split point system should resolve feeling unfunny as some points would got towards everyone then.
...
This being said, the fact that I didn't do so well in my first game may also be somewhat correlated with me not finding the defective condom funny.
I may be broken and may have thought "I don't see why I would be horribly scarred by discovering I'm getting a new sibling".
I think I'm just too literally minded.
Like time paradox didn't make sense to me in "Child tested: Mother approved" because that's not a time paradox, just a stable time loop.
Similarly, if the narrator is old enough to question the defective condom, why have the parents held on to a defective condom for several years? That's just gross.
And even more, if the parents are hiding Pretending to care, then they were first pretending to care outside, but have now progressed to just not expressing that facade to the kid at all. So the kid is receiving outright hostility. So even though the action itself doesn't make a lot of sense (maybe the parents are now only pretending to care for each other?), it made me laugh that this kid was now receiving zero care.
Fair warning, I'm visiting family right now so the next round won't be until Monday afternoon or evening.
That's right, I killed white people. How, you ask? Oompa-Loompas. (Boozer)

That's right, I killed a windmill full of corpses. How, you ask? Poor life choices. (Discrider)

What's the gift that keeps on giving? The Quesadilla Explosion Salad from Chili's (Cog) (*)
@Discrider, whose thought counted for the long term?
I think someone has underestimated the size of my penis and not considered the practicalities of wrapping it.
Of the other glorious answers though, The Quesadilla Explosion Salad from Chili's is truly the gift that keeps on giving, as it not only reminds the customer of its presence the next day, but, with some fresh tortillas, can be shared with friends as well!
The Quesadilla Explosion Salad from Chili's is the winner. The size of my penis got a "Thank god this one was able to be removed from the running on a technicality because otherwise I would have had to pick from 6 awesome answers".
It comes down to the cards really, but if it had been just my penis, it wouldn't have been easily removed from the pool, and I would've had a harder time deciding on a winner.
Still, power plays all around.
And it only took Cog two rounds to explode onto the scene.
Round 36: Cog is judging
TSA guidelines now prohibit _______ on airplanes.
Please PM your answers while Cog imagines experiencing the aftereffects of a Quesadilla Explosion Salad at 20,000 feet while in a small metal cylinder.
On a very important business phone call today, we were all discussing a slide in a presentation. This slide has a large, dark-colored rectangle with some text on it.
Someone started calling it "the big black box," and it caught on, so we had about 15 minutes of people talking nonstop about a big black box and moving it around and putting things in it. It was all I could do not to giggle uncontrollably the whole time.
I found my panel deck button at the beginning of the CAH panel and told the guys I was sitting next to about it, and one of them had a dirty fork stuck to his button. We were unable to coax an explanation out of the CAH guys.
They're such cool people. They used to share studio space with my friends' design firm. I recommend following them all on twitter. Trin and Jenn are constantly hilarious and max is too but he seems not as active lately. Then again they've been blowing up and must be so busy with everything they're doing I can't fault the guy for not tweeting as much
Next black card is blank, but this round's winner might not get a chance to choose the question. Details later.

TSA guidelines now prohibit panda sex on airplanes. (Discrider)
@Cog, what's going to guarantee a pre-flight visit from Officer Brownfinger?
It's a tough call, but I think the most likely thing to cause a mid-air incident requiring the flight to be diverted is definitively having a strong opinion about Obamacare on airplanes.

As in the "narrator" was never supposed to exist.
Maybe I do have a really outset sense of humor. Maybe I should leave and let someone else play.

This is entirely possible.
