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.

1. Where are you located currently?

On top of Gollum's desk.

2. Why are you located there?

Because that's where things of my nature go.

3. When were you last of use?

This morning.

4. What color are you primarily?

Bright blue with a circular white note on it.

5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely?

I'm plastic.  I could probably be cut or crack under too much strain, but it's not likely.  I'm supposed to remain in my current position indefinitely, which would only be problematic if there was an apocalypse.

Is Theo's object a modem?

Where are you located currently?  

Hanging on a hook.                                                                           

Why are you located there?

Cause I am handy for whenever BHR wants me.                                                                                 

When were you last used?  

This afternoon.                                                                                     

What color are you primarily?

Navy blue                                                                                    

Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely?   

No, not in the least. I am frequently slapped around. And my postion is quite nice, so no, I'm good.                               

Is Teresa's a hat? Is L's a pencil sharpener? True, is yours a computer mouse?And I agree, Theo's is either a tablet or Ipad, or your brother Steve's DS.

@BHR

Is yours a bathrobe? 

submitted by Teresa, age 14, Michigan

Not a pencil sharpener.

I think we should add another question to hurry this along some. About what size? For mine, thumb-sized.

No, it's been guessed and mine's a printer.

1. On a shelf

2. So that I can be found if my people need my assistance

3. About two weeks ago, when Charlie lazily flipped through me

4. Blue, with trims of gold and red

5. Not very fragile, but still, please do not use me roughly, for my owners want me to look nice, because I am of value not money-wise.

1. Where are you located currently?

Atop WritingWarrior's computer.

2. Why are you located there?

Because then I can get the best view of her lovely face.

3. When were you last of use?

Last week, when WritingWarrior was having some sort of a conversation with a friend.

4. What color are you primarily?

Grey, with streaks of black. There's a ittle pinpoint that flashes green when I turn on.

5. Are you a fragile object? Would it be problematic for you if you remained in your current position indefinitely?

No, but I have a tendancy to fall off the computer. Thankfully, I'm pretty durable, although others like me might not be.

Aha! A video camera! Like for Skype.

Correct! And for Gmail chat. Although it's really awful, being a plug-in webcam. *makes mental addition to list of birthday wishes, along with an infinity scarf*

Wow, I thought I was the only one in the world who used gmail chat!
