BAD PEOPLE - RED Expansion Pack (100 NEW Question Cards) - The Game You Probably Shouldn't Play

Product Information

Simply choosing not to do bad things can push you in the right direction. Committing to telling fewer lies, for example, is a significant step. Never have I ever questions– Another list of questions that will lead to some embarrassing conversations. I also feel the female characters were pretty underdeveloped, and often thoughts and feelings were almost projected onto them by the male leads. I do hope in future installments in this book series, any new or returning female characters will be a bit more fully formed and fleshed out as individuals themselves. Bad People sets itself up with a fairly familiar premise; children are going missing from a rural West Yorkshire community named Stormer Hill, and a weary detective obsessed with his job sets about solving the disappearances.

I am now referring to the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish people. It's one of those things that is easily said: 'The Jewish people are being exterminated', says every party member, 'this is very obvious, it's in our program, elimination of the Jews, extermination, we're doing it, hah, a small matter.' And then they turn up, the upstanding 80 million Germans, and each one has his decent Jew. They say the others are all swines, but this particular one is a splendid Jew. But none has observed it, endured it. Most of you here know what it means when 100 corpses lie next to each other, when there are 500 or when there are 1,000. To have endured this and at the same time to have remained a decent person — with exceptions due to human weaknesses — has made us tough, and is a glorious chapter that has not and will not be spoken of. Because we know how difficult it would be for us if we still had Jews as secret saboteurs, agitators and rabble-rousers in every city, what with the bombings, with the burden and with the hardships of the war. If the Jews were still part of the German nation, we would most likely arrive now at the state we were at in 1916 and 17 [...]" The rough kiss of sandpaper removed the first layer of skin within seconds.

On knowing when to stop:

Ask yourself what matters most to you. Honesty, trust, kindness, communication, integrity, and accountability are a few potential examples.

It’s not always possible to avoid hurting everyone. If you proceed with caution and compassion, you can avoid causing unnecessary pain. Thinking things over can also help you find a solution that’s better for all involved. Practice self-acceptance

The sociologist Nicholas Christakis takes a more positive view of human nature in Blueprint: The Evolutionary Origins of a Good Society (New York: Little, Brown Spark, 2019), arguing that the evolved human proclivity for cooperativeness (and learning, love, selflessness, and other prosocial traits) outweighs our capacity for aggression and has adaptive advantages over it. Christakis provides diverse examples of historical and contemporary societies and social groups to illustrate his point. The use of prose and clever narrative to build tension, mystery and intrigue throughout the story to its final “where did that come from?” moment was genius and I really do recommend this to you. Bad People” is one of those rare books where no words are wasted and every moment is important. You will love how the author helps you visualize everything. There was so much detail in the forensic and police procedurals and horrifying descriptions of the killers actions.

I liked the fact that some characters were an enigma to us the reader, and gave an added dimension of wonder. Bad People” is a gritty thriller with horror elements by Craig Wallwork. This is not your run of the mill thriller. It is dark and gory at times. The alternative use for sandpaper made me squirm. The character development in this story is well-done. I felt like I had a good sense of who the main players were (despite some surprises), and I got to know them without ever feeling like there was too much information. I grew attached to a couple of the characters and felt a lot of empathy for them. In my opinion, this is one of those books in which there are no wasted words. There were moments in which I actually felt frightened (which doesn’t happen to me often), and just some very cinematic and gruesome moments that I won’t ever forget. I’d like to keep this spoiler free, so I’ll limit myself to a few other thoughts. Reminding me of one of my favorite thrillers made into a movie, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, I couldn't help casting the role of Alex Palmer, the troubled and sexy former cop turned crime writer, as Daniel Craig. Which was fun.There is something deeply unsettling about Craig Wallwork's Bad People. As a horror fan for 30+ years, this is a compliment I can't make often. I'm desensitized. Jaded. Too cool for school. When it comes to horror, as much as I still love it, there isn't much that gets to me anymore. low intelligence (applicable more to crime than to aggression; and probably applicable more to criminals from communities where sociological factors like those listed above are not the main cause). communities whose social fabric has been badly damaged by long histories of collective trauma, oppression and discrimination. Ellemers N, et al. (2019). The psychology of morality: A review and analysis of empirical studies published from 1940 through 2017. In other speeches given to Nazi Generals in Sonthofen, Germany in May and June, 1944, Himmler states:

People with complex, interpersonal problems might put up a façade that prevents people from getting more than a superficial glimpse of them. They seem nasty, guiltless, without remorse. But that may not be the full story,” Joseph says. I have no doubt that fans of crime fiction will thoroughly enjoy Bad People, but there’s a lot in this book for horror fans too. From a scene where someone’s face is removed with a cordless sander, to bloody piglet carcasses left behind as clues, to a room of salt-cured cadavers, the author cleverly uses gore to enhance the intensity of the story. We struggle to understand how these people went home at night and tenderly kissed and played with their children, loved their dogs, appreciated classical music and read philosophy. As Michael Berenbaum, project director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum puts it: “The killers were civilized men and women of an advanced culture. They were both ordinary and extraordinary, a cross section of the men and women of Germany, its allies, and their collaborators as well as the best and the brightest.” [Michael Berenbaum, The World Must Know: The History of the Holocaust as Told in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (Boston: Little, Brown, 1993), p.220] I also like how specific and realistic all the police procedural and investigative terminology is. It’s thorough but interesting. Wallwork really seems to know his stuff (hopefully learned on the right side of the law...)

Moshagen M, et al. (n.d.). The dark factor of personality: A theory of the common core of dark personality traits. Rosenblum started working on Bad Summer People in the summer of 2021 when The White Lotushad first premiered and Succession’s third season was about to air. As she devoured both shows, she honed in on what she believed made them work: the total absence of moralization, particularly when it came to depicting their characters. You might do things others consider bad out of necessity. For example, many people lie, cheat, or steal on occasion. They may feel bad about doing it, but they may also feel it’s the only option available. Reasons don’t always justify theft or other crimes, but they can help put them into context. Instead of acting on impulse when you want something, ask yourself if your behavior might have a negative impact on anyone. Simply taking a moment to think about this can help you remember that your actions don’t just affect you. Tom Nolan, a seasoned detective and loner involved in finding each missing child. Nolan is tasked with chaperoning Palmer and walking through each case. But as both men revisit the past, and dig deeper, neither are prepared for the chilling discovery to why the children were taken.
