Because I can.

[active_apathy]

I feel like playing a game.

No, wait. That's not quite it.

I feel like playing a game of words, or of ideas, or of both, mixed together, with anyone and everyone who'd care to play, in the comments here.

I offer three options:

• the game of questions (as in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead)
• the oldest game (as in The Sandman issue A Hope in Hell, which is collected in the Preludes and Nocturnes TPB) [scroll down past the Danger Mouse bit], or
• another game of your choosing, if you tell me how it's played.

As for where, well, the comments here will do nicely, won't they?

(Also, seeing as how this is the Interweb, any rules about hesitation will be completely ignored.)

Is one less painful than the other?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

On a scale from one to ten?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

Do you think ten is large enough?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Would twenty really be better?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

More importantly, would I feel better?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

How could I tell?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

Aren't you omniscient?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Who told you that?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

Is it meant to be a secret?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Can't it still be?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

Is it still a secret if the quantum waveform hasn't collapsed yet?


(is it can be continuing after sleepytiems?)

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

When would the waveform collapse?

(Happily. *nodnods*)

[analise.livejournal.com]

Why does this remind me of talking to SmarterChild?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Haven't you ever played the question game before?

[analise.livejournal.com]

When would I have done that?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Don't you know anyone who'd play?

(And... bedtime.)

[analise.livejournal.com]

Would you play with me?

[okay!]

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Should I play with you?

[analise.livejournal.com]

Is there anything wrong with playing with me?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

Are you familiar with Schrödinger's Cat-in-a-Box?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Like the ones they sell at Crazy Erwin's House of Quantum?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

You've bought from them before?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

What did you think of their service?

[deepfishy.livejournal.com]

If I said they were charming, would you think I was strange?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Would you like for me to think you're strange?
