Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?

Monopoly. Don't make the 9 year old the banker for the family. She will steal 100s

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?

I am firmly in the 'drink till its pink' camp, so I will be drinking wine (or tequila) until I pop a positive

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?

To get into urgent care when I was in Kentucky last weekend. (Found out I had crypto which is why I was basically dying 2 weeks ago)

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?
Oh man, it's been a minute since I have played anything at all. More than likely I cheated at scrabble by using the internet to build me a word.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
I already rarely drink so it's not difficult for me. No one questions why I am not drinking at social events because I drink maybe 2-3 times a year at best.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
My food at Wendy's.

Win: I think I cheated playing the card game golf by looking at my card more than once when DH left the room. I am terrible at remembering the card I look at.

Whine: I drink normally. I don't drink a ton so it isn't unheard of for me to be without a drink.

Whine: the longest time I have waited in line recently was going through the security and ticket checking line at a football game.

Win: Does Rubik's Cube count?!

Wine: I don't drink so it's a non issue

Whine: The grocery store. I ALWAYS get in the slowest line or the line with someone paying with a check or a million coupons

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?

I can't cheat for my life, so I overcompensate when playing a game that requires bluffing, like poker, BS, or A**hole. We always played them while drinking and I was pretty good at them because others were tipsy and they don't believe that I would lie.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?

I don't drink much because of reflux and my friends know that, but I am also Team Drink Til It's Pink... so if I see anyone staring or being suspicious (not that I really care) I may sip on some cider or wine.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?

Other than work traffic or moving through the halls with kids at work, not much. I am impatient when it comes to waiting on line. I guess that's because we haven't gone out much lately and I've been shopping online. We're going to Eastern State soon, so that will be a long wait.

I'm a terrible cheater, but I do remember my mom busting my great, great aunt when I was a kid. She was wonderful, but every time she would ask me to play cards, she'd seat me with my back to a sunny window so she could read my cards from the other side. Sneaky little old lady!

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
I've been limiting drinking during the TWW, which has been a challenge because I am a social drinker. It's definitely not common to see me without a beer or wine at a social event. During my last TWW, I said I had too much to drink at a brunch earlier that day. We're having a few people over this weekend for a post-race celebration, but since it's at our own house, I plan on filling one of DH's empty beer bottles with water to throw anyone off the trail.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
I got stuck in line at Walgreens the other day while running late for practice. It was even worse because all I needed was a pack of index cards. Pretty lame, but all I can think of for now.

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?
Clue. I cheated in Clue to beat my brother. I'd sneak over and read the cards while he was on the other side of the room behind the bed to hide his cards from me. He thought I was a genius at guessing.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
I'll drink until I get a positive test, so beer, wine, cocktails, whatever I want. Also, all of my friends know I'm TTC so I'm not hiding anything.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
Nothing. Thankfully when both my husband and I see a long line we go "fuck that" and do something/go somewhere else.

Only time I can think of where I cheated was while playing Guess Who. I know, sounds pretty pathetic, but we were really just trying to mess with my one friend, so someone stood behind him and told me who he had so that I could win super early. He had no clue what was going on, and thought I was just some kind of Guess Who master.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
I also just drink until I get a positive. However, if there is ever a time where I am really concerned if I should be drinking or not I just make sure I drive that night.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?

I recently went to the store for rolls and ended up getting stuck on line for about 15 minutes. There were only two registers open, and of course the person in front of me with a full cart and about 10 coupons couldn't let the girl with 3 rolls go first.

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?
I played Euchre with the same group of people every day at lunch during senior year of high school. My partner dealt cards off the bottom of the deck so we won a surprising *ahem* percentage of the games.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
I am in the drink 'til it's pink camp, but I don't drink a lot so if I stopped and people commented I would probably just saying something about trying to be healthier.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
I was at a music festival last week and it seemed like half the time we were waiting in line for something.

Candyland. As a kid I couldn't standdddd to lose at Candyland.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
Definitely team drink til its pink! And most of our close family/friends know that we are TTC so if it's a small gathering of us and I choose not to drink (which, let's be honest, is rare) no one really says anything.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
To get into a bar. DH and I recently visited my old college town for a football game and had to wait foreverrrrr to get into one of my fav bars. Totally worth it though!

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?
Video games vs my brother in law! I wore the headset to trash talk and my husband played but played poorly enough so that it looked like me. I think I have played 3 times in my life but BIL is suspicious and wants a true re-match in parson at Thanksgiving. I could be caught

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?
Also team drink till its pink. But I typically drink gin and club soda at work happy hour so that is easily replaced by just club soda. Also I am typically training for some race or another or I "lost at backgammon and have to be the DD" which my husband and I play regularly (with those stakes or chores as stakes). I have given this thought because if I ever get KU it would raise eyebrows if I was not drinking

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?
A money order at the post office this morning. I needed to get a new parking permit for my car and didn't have my checkbook and the post office was especially slow.

SaphireSweetie88 · October 2016

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating? The game sorry.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail? Depends where I am at. At my family's events I don't worry about it. No one asks or would suspect. At DH's family events, I will usually put pink lemonade in a wine glass. No one questions it because they assume it's a pink Moscato and I love Moscatos.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for? Food at a fast food restaurant

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating?

There was a card game I used to play with my cousins. The premise was just that you had to play cards equal to or higher than the person who played before you. If you went out first you got to “tax” the person who went out last and take their good cards when the next round started. I would hide cards I needed to get rid of under the actual cards I was playing to avoid being last.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail?

I’m drink til it’s pink. When I get KU I’ll have to figure out a plan.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for?

I pre ordered my iphone online and was given the option to pick it up in store the day it was released or have it delivered a week later. They had appointment times for picking them up and, like a dope, I just thought I’d be able to walk in, pick it up and leave with my new phone in a matter of minutes. When I got there they were an hour behind. So I became one of those morons waiting in line for their new iphone. I felt incredibly stupid, I’m so NOT that person.

krisnicole23 · October 2016

Win: What sport or game did you win at after cheating? I honestly have never tried to cheat. I'm the worst liar ever so my facial expression would give it away.

Wine: What do you drink when trying to throw people off your TTC trail? I with @swimsister and drink until it's pink for now.

Whine: What is something you've recently waited on line a long time for? My hair to grow faster. I eat healthy and all natural but it seems like it's taking forever to get past the length that it's currently at.

kiki75 · October 2016

Win: Ummm...I really don't know of anything.

Wine: I'm pretty much team drink lightly until its pink. So I'll back it off to one or two lighter beers and just take microsips to make them last. People are also less observant than you would think. If you have a drink in your hand, preferably in a dark/opaque container, and bring it up to your lips on occasion, you're good. I got away with this a number of times. ETA: Or if you have your partner with you, just keep swapping the beers back and forth. MH and I pulled this off very successfully at a family wedding.

Whine: The bathroom at the Y the other night. There are two that aren't in the locker room and are closer to the machines. Usually you can get in and out quicker than going to the locker room. Got there and one was being cleaned and the other was locked. Waited. And Waited. And Waited. Finally, they finish cleaning the one, and a woman who didn't realize I as waiting zipped right in. I don't fault her at all but I have no idea why someone apparently decided to live in the other one.
