Though this is satire, we’ve all had that experience where we played a game (many times, even!) and only found out later that we got the rules massively wrong. Share your experience!

My SOs family played a lot of games kind of weirdly, they explained the rules to me, so I just joined and kept quiet at first, not to be a buzzkill.
For instance, they mixed Exploding Kittens two decks of cards, and some cards never did anything. Which felt weird. So after like third session I looked up the rules, and found out you can use two- and three-of-a-kind to pull cards from other players! It’s not like they decided not to use them, they just never knew.
Since then, I always read the rules, no matter what they tell me. And lo and behold, the games are even more fun now.
The exploding kittens have in the rules that you should first play it without the combo kittens and after few games introduce these rules.
So I guess that they just didn’t bothered looking again at the rules after the first few rounds.
