Plot-line Demolition

One person tells a story about something that has upset them recently. The group listens, and tries to find a question that would make the narrative fall apart. The winner is the listener who's question makes the storyteller feel like they need to re-think their story. (It's up to the storyteller to determine if there is a winner).

Example:

Storyteller: I came home from work exhausted and tired, and my girlfriend wanted to me to talk about how my day was. I just wanted to lie on the couch and be quiet and decompress. She just doesn't know how to leave me alone. She's so f-ing annoying sometimes.

Losing Listener: Have you thought about how she's also doing a lot of emotional labor by asking you how you are doing?

Winning Listener: What should a person do when they feel lonely and the people they care about are unavailable?
