'Member That Time?

'Member that time when I was young and in Patch the Pirate club (church group that met on Wednesdays)? 'Member how we were given a prize if we were extra good during the lesson and singing?

I figured out the system. After a month of being the perfect angel and only getting one prize, I realized that they do a rotation, and each kid only wins once every 4 weeks, even the "bad" ones.

'Member how I was so proud I figured it out and from that point on, was only "good" every 4th week, because really, if you're not getting toys for being well behaved, why exert all that energy?

All of a sudden, my good behavior was more praised because it wasn't the norm anymore.
