Never say "impossible" unless you're talking physics or math.
If you're talking about something positive, consider instead: "very difficult"

@rnd There are times I wish I had grown up with gaming culture...
@woozle to be fair, this is a very obscure corner of gaming culture -- the game in question was shelved before it was officially released, and was only dumped in the 2000s, after which the canadian sketch comedy group LoadingReadyRun took the idea of repeatedly playing through "Desert Bus" (a "super-realistic" driving sim which requires someone to drive eight real-life hours along a featureless road, and no, you can't pause or cheat by holding the accelerator button and leaving) on a livestream for charity that this game (and the collection that it was supposed to be a part of, which mostly includes games designed to prank your friends) became really famous
here's a copy of the manual for the whole collection, which explains how the game's "owner" was supposed to trick the "sucker" in different mini-games: https://archive.org/details/smokemirrorsmanual/page/n1/mode/2up
