Here's some helpful tips from the Kidz Club Games and Tips Page: > HELP elderly folks cross the first part of the street and then encourage them to get across the rest of the way on their own! > DON'T desecrate that statue even though you'd gain tons of street cred! > START a lemonade stand but immediately go "Out of Business" to draw attention to wealth-destroying minimum wage laws!

I just talked to a friend at Groupon who helped write it. Apparently they have a "humor team" whose job it is to come up with stuff like this.

That's actually more depressing than if this were real.
