New Game: "On the bright side..." (good news/bad news)
In this game, the first person gives a bad news, and the next person says, "On the bright side...".
Example:
Poster1: Bad news, your car was totaled.
Poster2: On the bright side, there's a sale at the Chevy dealer!
Bad news, someone spilled pine tar all over your lawn.
and so on.
I'll start -
Bad news, you overslept!

Oh man oh man do I know the answer to this one! The good news is two-fold. Your week of constipation is now over, and also you get to remodel your entire bathroom because you failed to see the overflow until way, way too late.
The bad news: Your favorite tv cop is now on only every other week instead of every week.
