random question of the day

Apr 16, 2010 10:24

If a work of fiction has an introduction, do you read it? Or do you skip it and jump to the text?

What is this "read" thing you speak of? It is an action I am unfamiliar with.

And "text"? As in with a cell phone?

Woe, this post is so confusing.

Poor dear, all confused by the "alien" words in this post.

To help you, I have this helpful link that will inform you as to just what it means "to read": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_%28process%29.

I also have some videos for you that may help:

I can see you put a lot of effort into this reply... sanadafaye April 16 2010, 22:59:33 UTC

That link had a bunch of weird symbols all over it. I wasn't sure what you wanted me to do with it.

The videos, however, oh those were certainly helpful.

Same-Sound Brown is one funky cat, I'll give him that.

I have bookmarked this entry just in case I ever need a refresher course on what reading is all about.

I'm glad the videos were helpful. It's too bad about the article; it really could have been an useful tool. You may want to invest in some Dr. Seuss books if you want to further your reading.

Here is an unrelated, but fun, video:

Martians are never off topic.

simplytoopretty April 16 2010, 23:24:06 UTC

That is probably true.

You've just been waiting for an opportunity to post these, haven't you?

simplytoopretty April 16 2010, 23:29:54 UTC

What gives you that impression?

sanadafaye April 16 2010, 23:36:18 UTC

I don't know. It's just, like, this feeling in my gut.

This feeling is also telling me that you are enjoying this. Quite a bit, actually.

simplytoopretty April 16 2010, 23:41:31 UTC

Well, maybe just a little. But these things are classics. Classics!

sanadafaye April 16 2010, 23:45:05 UTC

Martians may always be on topic.

The Bananaphone? Not even I can work that into a conversation.

So. My hats off to you.

simplytoopretty April 16 2010, 23:51:21 UTC

You clearly need to work on your repertoire so you that can work in the Bananaphone. It needs to be there. It's a classic!

And thank you my dear. *takes a bow*
