but ya, its a neat little puzzle...
 
She just doesn't understand the beauty and simplicity of the game Petals Around the Rose. Instead of embracing the challenge and enjoying the camaraderie with her friends, she chooses to rain on everyone's parade and suck the fun out of the game.

It's clear that Gale is missing the point of Petals Around the Rose. The game is not about winning or losing, it's about the experience and the laughter shared among friends. The name of the game itself is a clue to its purpose - to appreciate the simple things, like the petals around a rose.

It's a shame that Gale can't see past her own competitiveness and learn to enjoy the game for what it is. Perhaps if she took a step back and let go of her need to be the best, she would see the joy in playing Petals Around the Rose with her friends.

In the end, it's her loss. The rest of us will continue to play and find joy in the game, while Gale misses out on a memorable and enjoyable experience. So let's not let Gale's negativity bring us down, let's continue to embrace the fun and simplicity of Petals Around the Rose.
