How is best to respond to “infinity plus one” jibes. As in:
Player 1: “Well I wanted it 10 times more than you.”
Player 2: “I wanted it infinity times more than you.”
Player 1: “I wanted it infitity plus one times - ha ha! I win, you lose.”
According to Robert’s Rules of Order, the proper procedure following an Infinity Plus One proposal is to motion for the committee to begin mother insults.
After “Player 2” uses the “Infinity” clause, he should cap it with “no call-backs”. This effectively ends the one-upmanship.
Player 1: “Well I wanted it 10 times more than you.”
Player 2: “I wanted it infinity times more than you. No call-backs!”
Player 1: “Shoot, that’s the end of that repartee.”
