STRANGE THING I
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
STRANGE THING I
STRANGE THING I JUST CAME UP WITH.
Well, thought we could use a little mixing up with all the stuff going on, something a little random and I came up with this.
The idea is similar to that of a quiz, but instead of answering them yourself, ask the questions of an inanimate object in your house and have them answer. Then people guess what object you interviewed, like an SI. Observe:
1. Where are you located currently?
Currently? Under L's desk. I need to be moved! It's dusty down here and there are spiders. I think. Not quite sure.
2. Why are you located there?
I fell off the desk, of course. She was moving tons of stuff and didn't notice when I fell. Grr.
3. When were you last of use?
About a week ago, when L had to write a paper and the Internet tanked.
4. What color are you primarily?
Light gray, and I occasionally have yellow or green.
5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely?
YES. DO NOT PULL OUT YOUR DESK CHAIR. I FEAR I SHALL BE CRUSHED.
Let the guessing-games begin! And may the odds be ever in your favor.

That's an interesting idea.
1. Where are you located currently? I'm on the dresser, as are a lot of other things.
2. Why are you located there? Because I'm asleep.
3. When were you last of use? The last time I was used was back in October, but I got washed two weeks ago.
4. What color are you primarily? I'm blue with a yellow lid.
5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely? No, I'm made of plastic. I won't really care, but I think I might wake up for the third time pretty soon... maybe next month?

@L
I want to say your object is one of those pencils that changes color.
1. Where are you located? I am in Teresa's closet, hanging on a hanger.
2. Why are you located there? It is my home.
3. When were you last used? Oh, I was used over Easter. The next time I'll get out is on July 4th.
4. What color are you primarily? I am many colors: peach, blue, red, white.
5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current postision? I would not break if you dropped me, but if you did it would take effort to get me back to working order. I wouldn't mind being in my current position, but I like to get out once in a while.

A... dress?
(April 11, 2013 - 6:14 pm)
No, it's not a dress! In afct, it isn't even a piece of clothing!

Is your object, Ruby, a fish tank?
WHERE ARE YOU CURRENTLY LOCATED? On the shelf next to the desk the computer Theo is typing on is.
WHY ARE YOU LOCATED THERE? It's covenient for people who use me because I'm not that far away from the computer.
WHEN WHERE YOU LAST USED? Earlier this week.
WHAT COLOR ARE YOU PRIMARILY? I'm not sure about other things like me, but I'm black, with silver lining and a few small colored buttons.
ARE YOU A FRAGILE OBJECT? WOULD IT BE PROBELMATIC FOR YOU IF YOU REMAINED IN YOUR CURRENT POSTION INDEFINITILY? I am a fragile obeject, on a scale with iron being not fragile, but I'm not glass. If you threw me off a cliff, I would fall apart. It would not, will not, be a probelm for me to stay here indefinitly, esspecialy if people still care to use me for that long.
LAST COMMENT: NOOO! Theo is turning my power off--
*Ending, please wait awhile*

My object is not a pencil that changes color, although I have about fifteen of those in a shiny green coffee mug on top of my desk.
Theo's is a computer/iPad/something electronic!
(April 11, 2013 - 6:02 pm)
No, it's not. The fish tank is in the closet.
Your object is your iPad.
(April 11, 2013 - 6:46 pm)
Theo, is your item a printer?
(April 12, 2013 - 10:52 am)
Yes! My item is the printer! A very nice one, in fact. At least I can make sense of it.
(April 12, 2013 - 7:00 pm)
It's going to wake up soon?! Really???!!! Why don't you tell me these things? Who is it waking up for?
(April 12, 2013 - 5:57 pm)
Is L's object a color-changing pencil?
Is Teresa's a doll?
Is Theo's the sound speaker?
1. Where are you located currently?
On a shelf under the computer desk.
2. Why are you located there?
It's where I belong... at least, according to True's family.
3. When were you last of use?
On ... Monday, was it?
4. What color are you primarily?
Black and a little bit of silver.
5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely?
Indefinitely? Well, I'd get rusted and dusty... but this is a fine place to be, if I could choose.
Fragile? Well, I'm not glass or anything. I'm plastic and metal. If I were to be dropped on the floor, then I wouldn't fall apart, but I would loose a few pieces.
(April 11, 2013 - 5:21 pm)
My object is not a doll, although my item is similar to a doll.
(April 12, 2013 - 10:53 am)
Puppet.
(April 12, 2013 - 7:01 pm)
I'll let that count. Technically, it is a marionette, or puppet on strings.
The reason I said I used it on Easter and will next use it on July 4th is because my cousins and I put on a show for my family over the holidays.
(April 12, 2013 - 8:47 pm)
I want to say the CPU.
