GS: Google Maps?

SW: It’s not just for cracking down on Chinese dissidents any more!

GS: But Hopscotch is a children’s game! You’re going to sue children?

SW: Last I checked, the money in their piggy bank is the same color as any one else’s. Heh-heh.

GS: You’re a monster!

SW: Thanks so much for noticing! Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a meeting with our lawyers, we’re looking to wrap up the rights to jump rope, hide-and-go-seek and tag. That includes freeze tag and possibly Kick the Can.

GS: Seriously, tag?

SW: I believe the exact wording is “pursuit based games of “it” named targets and/or pursuers”. Wouldn’t want Ghost in the Graveyard to slip between our fingers, would we? After that we’re moving on to more adult games such as Spin the Bottle, Truth or Dare, and Charades.

GS: Logitech already has the rights to Charades.

SW Curses! Foiled again!
