What is Ringworm?

Just imagine, it is Family Game night.
And we are gathered around the 'Science Gross Out' game.
If, by chance, Coach wins the entire game....it is possible, The Kid will end such game with a look of confusion, shock and 'unfairness' that was extremely insulting and nearly stopping short of declaring himself more intelligent than his father.
Good for you Coach, way to humble that brat!


That said, let's just suppose that it felt like Coach was getting the easiest questions, I have ever heard.
For example:
Why do you put chlorine in a pool?


While I received trick questions, that I believe Coach doctored and judged too harshly.
For example:
What kind of species is a ringworm?

Also, if Coach's Gross Out dare was to remove his socks, put his feet on the table and wiggle his toes...well, the entire family really lost, at that moment.

Tink, jumped up, squealed and high-fived after every single roll.
One, can never over-congratulate oneself, eh Coach?

Coco, spent the duration, chewing on the slime container.

Family game night?
A success.
Except for The Kid, having to choke down the disappointment of his father, having a brain.
That stung.
