I know that we all love a good game, so I thought I'd start another one!
Fortunately unfortunately is a game where you alternate between beginning a sentence with 'fortunately' and 'unfortunately' in relation to what the above commenter has said. Here's an example:
Fortunately, I got a new puppy at the weekend!
Unfortunately, he ran away.
Fortunately, he came back with a present for me.
Unfortunately, the present was stolen.
Fortunately, dogs don't have fingerprints.
Unfortunately, the police can identify dogs by their hair.
Fortunately, my puppy is hairless.
... and so on.
It can be as sensible or as silly as you'd like. I'll post the first one in the comments.
