A Game of Chicken

Dad on Saturday: "I'm not able to get into Game of Thrones. I think I'll just give you back your book."
Me on Saturday: "No no! Hold in there - at about page 200 it gets really engaging!"

Me on Wednesday: "So.... how's Game of Thones coming?"
Dad on Wednesday: "Yeah, alright, so it got good."
Me on Wednesday: "Ah ha! Seeee!"

Me on Thursday: "I'm reading Catcher in the Rye, but I'm not that into it."
Dad on Thursday: "Wait until page 200, then it picks up."
Me on Thursday: "But there aren't even 200 pages in the.... oh... I see. Well played."

(Dad and I play the long game sometimes with these.)
