Anyone want to play the question game?
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Why not?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Do you know how to play?
Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
No. Muahahaha!
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Is the score 1-0, now?
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Could you explain the rules? Posted by kmbboots (Member # 8576) on :
Why don't we ask Rosencrantz?
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Does Rosencrantz know the rules?
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
Which one is Rosencratz?
Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
Don't you know?
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
Does anyone expect me to?
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Why can't you two just get along for once?
Posted by sillygoose (Member # 1616) on :
What are people arguing about?
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
Tante, isn't that rhetoric?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Is questioning under the influence allowed?
Posted by Architraz Warden (Member # 4285) on :
Have I lost yet?
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
But if you have, then who won?
Posted by KarlEd (Member # 571) on :
Are losers defined by winners? Or can you have a loser without having first determined a winner? Or could we all be losers?
Was that a triple-play?

Who cares about baseball? Posted by sillygoose (Member # 1616) on :
Why are we talking about baseball?
Posted by Kettricken (Member # 8436) on :
Who cares about sport?
Posted by CRash (Member # 7754) on :
How can you say that?
Posted by TheHumanTarget (Member # 7129) on :
Isn't everything a sport?
Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Even dying?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
Why are you asking something so morbid?
Posted by aiua (Member # 7825) on :
Isn't everything morbid to some degree?
Posted by Ramdac99 (Member # 7264) on :
what defines "morbid?"
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
What is the latin word it is derived from?
Posted by aiua (Member # 7825) on :
Who here has studied Latin at some point?
Posted by Ramdac99 (Member # 7264) on :
are you asking me?
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
Don't people think that French is better than Latin?
Posted by Ramdac99 (Member # 7264) on :
don't a lot of people think a lot of things about France?
Posted by dean (Member # 167) on :
Sure, but can't they still be right?
Posted by Zarex (Member # 8504) on :
Wait France? What's France? And who cares about France if there is a France?
Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :
Why are we talking about France?
Posted by Rico (Member # 7533) on :
Why would anyone ever talk about anything else?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
May I change the subject now?

Posted by camus (Member # 8052) on :
Why, what have you got against the French?
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
Why don't people know the difference between "can" and "may" anymore? Is this a sign of the breakdown of society?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
Who dares to use the word "can" in place of "may"?
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
What makes you think I had anyone specific in mind?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
Are you asking me?
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Do you all know that I have never in my life lost this game?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
Are you ready to finally lose?
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Why would I lose now?
Posted by tern (Member # 7429) on :
Who would you lose to?
Posted by Youth ap Orem (Member # 5582) on :
Why don't you answer my questions?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
Why don't you ask something worth answering?
Posted by Altáriël of Dorthonion (Member # 6473) on :
Why can't we be friends?

Who wants to be friends with YOU?

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
I'm sorry, whose lead is it?
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
Isn't it Ryan Stiles' lead now?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Why would you think that?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
<new topic, everything has to be concerning the office>
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Did you get the memo?
Posted by rCX (Member # 8503) on :
What memo?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Don't you know?
Posted by Zarex (Member # 8504) on :
Why should I?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Didn't the boss mention it in the email?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Who's the boss?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
How could you not know who your boss is?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Could it be because he's so bad I don't want to claim him?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Wouldn't you know that better than me?
Posted by Zarex (Member # 8504) on :
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
<stay on topic> <it's not fair if you can ask random questions, there's no skill>
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Who died and made you Clive Anderson?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
<it's the rules of the game it's got nothing to do with me>
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
I get enough of the bossiness at the office, why do I have to put up with it here too?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Wouldn't you say that, that's a statement, with a question on the end?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
STill a question, don't you think?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
In that case this sentence would be a question, do you agree?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Why are you allowed to change the topic but we aren't?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Rosencrantz: Do you want to play questions? Guildenstern: How do you play that? Rosencrantz: You have to ask a question. Guildenstern: Statement. One - Love. Rosencrantz: Cheating. Guildenstern: How? Rosencrantz: I haven't started yet. Guildenstern: Statement. Two - Love. Rosencrantz: Are you counting that? Guildenstern: What? Rosencrantz: Are you counting that? Guildenstern: Foul. No repetition. Three - Love and game. Rosencrantz: I'm not going to play if you're going to be like that. Guildenstern: Whose serve? Rosencrantz: Err... Guildenstern: Hesitation! Love... one. Rosencrantz: Whose go? Guildenstern: Why? Rosencrantz: Why not? Guildenstern: What for? Rosencrantz: Foul! No synonyms! One... all. Guildenstern: What in God's name is going on? Rosencrantz: Foul! No rhetoric! Two... one. Guildenstern: What does it all add up to? Rosencrantz: Can't you guess? Guildenstern: Were you addressing me? Rosencrantz: Is there anyone else? Guildenstern: Who? Rosencrantz: How would I know? Guildenstern: Why do you ask? Rosencrantz: Are you serious? Guildenstern: Was that rhetoric? Rosencrantz: No. Guildenstern: Statement! Two all. Game point.
Posted by tern (Member # 7429) on :
Why didn't you fill out the TPS report before changing the topic?
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
What TPS report? Why didn't I hear about this?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Didn't i give it to you?
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
Why don't I remember this?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
See what happens when we listen to the boss?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
What happens when we listen to the boss?
I repeated an old post -1 for repetition
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Well, if you can't see it, why should I remind you?
<this sounds like I am being b****y. I'm not. This is a cute game and I am just playing along so don't take all this the wrong way>
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
What happens if we don't listen to the boss?
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
Why should we care what the boss thinks?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
What are you talking about?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Weren't we talking about the missing TPS report?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Who was working on the TPS filing system at the time?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
You don't expect me to answer that do you?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Why? Were you the one working there?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Why would you think it was me?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Who else would it be?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Don't you see all these other people here?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Aren't they all in accounting?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Why are you so concerned? Why didn't you just do it?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
Why bother asking me since I can't even be trusted with the darned TSP reports?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Can we do them, now that the copy machine's broken?
Posted by MandyM (Member # 8375) on :
And now I suppose you are going to blame me for that too, huh?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Have you tried turning it on?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Where's the on switch?
Posted by sillygoose (Member # 1616) on :
Is it in the back?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Is what in the back?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
There's pumpkin pie in the back?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Is there any whip cream around?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
Did you bother to check the refrigerator?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Didn't they take it in for repairs?
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
When will it be returned?
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Well, aren't you as the repairman supposed to fix it?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Aren't i the repairman?
Posted by tern (Member # 7429) on :
When did you become the repairman?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
When was i not a repair man?
Posted by Little_Doctor (Member # 6635) on :
Since when do we not capitalize "I"?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
Did MandyM file those TPS reports yet?
Posted by Uprooted (Member # 8353) on :
Are we still having an office theme even though it's Saturday night?
Posted by Jonathan K. (Member # 7720) on :
<post a new theme anytime you like, just do it like this>
Posted by BandoCommando (Member # 7746) on :
Does anyone else here think that Tom Stoppard is a genius?
And did you notice how I EVADED your question?
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
Who is Tom Stoppard?

<Rules for the Question game: No rhetorical questions No questions that start with a statement, and then use a comma to add a question word/phrase, i.e. I didn’t go to the movies, did you? No synonyms No repeats of sentences that have been said previously No going off-track from the sentence prior i.e. 1. Did you go to the movies? 2. Where are the parking spots? Avoid one-word questions like Why? or How? I did not make up these rules, they are the rules in any standared drama class> ;-)

Are we still playing this game?
Posted by Hamson (Member # 7808) on :
What'd I miss?
Posted by tern (Member # 7429) on :
Did I miss you?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
Does it look like you missed me with this big pink splotch on my shirt?
<and Jonathan, FYI, not everyone has taken drama classes>
Posted by Will B (Member # 7931) on :
Since when do *you* care how your clothes look?
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
Maybe since you splotched my favorite comfy shirt?
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
You have clothes?
