I wrote a thing.
I don't know what it is exactly, but it's a thing. There were free notebooks at work today, so I took one 'cause they were kind of cute, and then this conversation started happening. And so I wrote it on the bus ride home.
I know that part of it is inspired by Red vs Blue, and I feel like one of the characters could be Tucker, but at the same time, who knows? It's just a thing, an inane conversation, between what I realize now is a number of people. Enjoy:
That's the real question isn't it? The one it all comes down to. Why are we here? I mean sure it's one of life's great mysteries and all, but does anyone really have an answer?
Well, if it had an answer, it wouldn't be much of a mystery, would it?
Maybe not, but I still want an answer.
If you want an answer, then maybe we should start at the beginning.
Dude, what beginning, We're just talking.
In the beginning was the word...
What word?
This isn't the Bible you know. And before you ask, it probably won't help with the whole why are we here thing. People have been contemplating that for years, religion or no.
I know that. I just think we should try to solve it or something.
Solve one of the biggest mysteries of life itself? One that everyone contemplates at least once in their life.
Well, unless you can think of something better to do, because I'm out of ideas.
Alright, good point. So where do we start? And don't say the beginning because we already covered that.
Well where else are we supposed to start?
How about the middle?
The Middle of what?
I don't know. A word.
We'll start in the middle of a word.
Why not?
Fine. What middle?
I don't know. Ud.
Ud?
Yeah, the middle of dude.
So what do I do with it?
Why do you keep asking me? I don't have any answers. Just think about it.
Well, there's a u and a d. It can start words like udder. Or end them, like dud or thud, bud, mud, cud...
Now you're just rhyming.
No, I'm thinking about ud. Like you told me to.
Well think quieter. I want to have a nap.
You're supposed to be helping me figure out why we're here.
I'll tell you why we're here. We have nowhere better to be.
-fin-
For now at least. This was kind of fun to write and I kind of want to write more.
