[Kaila]

Why is that?

 

[hollydolly]

Why is what ?

 

[mike4lorie]

What is Why?

 

[Kaila]

Why is it so difficult to respond to that seemingly very simple question?

 

[Rosemarie]

Yes, hollydolly, you're right about continuity. Don't you get irritated by the little oversights which just shouldn't happen?

 

[mike4lorie]

Why would you want to answer a question with continuity?

 

[Rosemarie]

Surely by answering any question, you are practising continuity? If I asked what colour are your eyes and you said, 'toast', that would not be continuity because you wouldn't be answering the question.
Why do some people need to have everything spelled out?

 

[hollydolly]

Do pedants get on your nerves ..?

 

[mike4lorie]

Does this game get on your nerves?

 

[Rosemarie]

Should we give up playing when it gets on our nerves?

 

[mike4lorie]

Should we?

 

[Rosemarie]

Wouldn't it be better to make more of an effort to keep things interesting?

 

[mike4lorie]

What would you like to see to peak your interest?

 

[Rosemarie]

Surely you're not going to pander to my whims?

 

[Kaila]

Whims is such an interesting word and concept, don't you agree?

 

[hollydolly]

if I agreed with you, would you be my friend...?

 

[Kaila]

Aren't I already?

 

[mike4lorie]

Aren't you what?

 

[Rosemarie]

Which what?

 

[mike4lorie]

How long does it take a tadpole to turn to a frog?

 

[Rosemarie]

Have you ever caught some tadpoles and watched it happen?

 

[hollydolly]

have you ever as a child been given a goldfish by the ragman... ?

 

[mike4lorie]

Who was the ragman employed by?

 

[hollydolly]

Would you have employed him at the time to take your rags ?

 

[Rosemarie]

Wasn't it the case that he paid YOU for your rubbish?
