Trivia

Title

While the game's English title is a reasonable gloss for its German name of Mensch ärgere Dich nicht!, this particular translation seems to necessarily be in reference to Bobby McFerrin's monstrously popular 1988 a capella song of the same name. But Bobby McFerrin derived the phrase from quotes from the Indian mystic Meher Baba - from the same land as the Pachisi parlour game from which this program is converted - and it's possible that this game's author did as well.
