[Justin Bieber]

A game that makes children believe in a world of fantasy where [battleships], thimbles, and hats are [sentient] and can own property. On [the plus side], it raises the children to be investors and big-buisness types, which may not be on the plus side according to your views.

Ruining friendships [since] the [1960s].

[Magaret]

When a single institution becomes so powerful, that it has total control over a certain commodity, service or industry. This cant actually exist, because it cant ever be truly 100%. At least, not until we live in a futurisitic [dystopia] where the government/corporations/intelligent computers/big-headed aliens use mind control, rayguns and/or the Matrix to enforce control.

An example of an Almost-monopoly is Microsoft, who many people say have a monopoly of the Desktop PC Operating System market. This isnt true, as a small percentage of people use Macs or Linux PCs. Hell, you can even use [FreeBSD] as a desktop system.

A family game where people play shoes, irons and cowboy hats masquerading as [CEOs] vying for economic world domination. Based largely on luck, but skill/[know-how] can also be used, as is proved by a [sad person] I know who spent his [young life] getting good at the game so that, for once, he would be better than others at something. Usually, however, the game degenerates into petty fights and shouting matches.

[Kit]

A word used in place of [sexual intercourse]. Often used in social [setting] between [2 people] in order to talk openly about sex without having anyone else know.

[Merna]

a term used to [indicate] a person wants to have sex with another person or to [fool around] . [Indiscreet] way of saying, hey you wanna have sex?

[Vania]

Where a single institution controls all of the supply for a good in a market.
However, a monopoly cannot last in the long run, unless a barrier to entry exists in the market.
Barriers to entry include:

control of natural resources or inputs
[economies of scale]
technological superiority
legal restrictions imposed by governments, including patents and copyrights.

A [monopolist] maximizes profit by producing a little less than the market equilibrium, driving up the price of the good. This creates a deadweight [loss to society], (some mutually beneficial transactions are forgone), which is why a monopoly is discouraged or illegal in many parts of the world.

[Tanya Shivari]

A small, [mythical] being, resembling a [leprechaun], that engages in [inappropriate] activities.

[Monopoly]: A bored, ([pardon] the [Freudian slip]), game.
[monopoly]: A legal concept that has been legislated out of existence by attorneys, judges, and legislators. Now that all legal definitions of monopoly are unlawful, simply understand this: When a corporation is so big that it doesnt need to worry about whether consumers like doing business with it, because they have no choice, its a monopoly.
