As a kid playing "Pass The Parcel" in England at friends' birthday parties,
a present would be wrapped in about 11 hundred million layers of wrapping
paper and the kids would sit in a circle and pass the parcel round the
circle as music played. An adult would stop the music and whoever was
holding the parcel at that moment would remove 1 layer of wrapping paper.
About 6 million years later the skeleton holding the parcel with the final
layer of wrapping paper gets the present inside.
.... and realises that a Wollworths 99p plastic toy wasn't really worth waiting for anyway.
This ignores the assassination attempts on the child who allegedly removed two layers in one go and the accusations of favouritism against the person operating the record-player.
Oh, how we lau^Wcried.
