December 29, 2025: Life Lessons From Illuminati

I amused myself recently by coming up with "Life Lessons From Munchkin." I realize that I spend too much time thinking about games, so I turned the same chin-stroking consideration to another fine game: Illuminati.

     • The ways everything is really connected in the world are sometimes pretty funny.

     • You can never be assured of success, but you can always be assured of failure.

     • When you leave the room, it's safest to assume others are plotting against you.

     • The media is quite good at destroying the media.

     • What you consider "winning" may not mean anything to anyone else.

That's what sprang to mind . . . or perhaps what was beamed there by the Orbital Mind Control Lasers. Feel free to share your own ideas on the forums!
