It was a very funny link; it reminded me a little of the old Candid Camera, except where both parties enter into the game.
Sadly, I must not be a player. If approached by a total stranger with some of the statements, I suspect I'd have my best poker face on, wait until the loony guy had left, and then howl with laughter. But if I didn't know him from Adam in *some* way (i.e., he's the grocery checker, she's the librarian - IOW, people who *belong* in the place where I find myself), the chances of my entering into a game like that is about zilch.
Sigh. And I consider myself to be fun to be with, but evidently Robert Fulghum would find me a bore.
Au contraire, ma chere--you, like Lois, are a wonderful world-builder. Just ask a certain local menagerie & the inhabitants thereof [both with feathers & without]. ;)
