Answer a QUESTION with a QUESTION

[metalminx24]

In that case, can I have my simplicity gift-wrapped with a big pink bow on top please?

 

[tree]

Are you asking me to incarnate a concept or
to give you a box full of sewing patterns?

 

[Flinty]

Isn't there a way to do both?

 

[metalminx24]

Isn't that a little greedy?

 

[Flinty]

Why can't we have more and better?

 

[Myway]

Why are we talking about this when we could be talking about something else?

 

[tree]

Why are you so eager to change the subject?

 

[tree]

Wasn't it something about the outcome
of such a simple thread?

 

[Flinty]

Where is this simple thread?

 

[Myway]

You want to find out?

 

[Flinty]

Wasn't that the purpose of my inquiry?

 

[zurb]

Are you unsure what your purpose was?

 

[tree]

Are you trying to distract
Flinty in his search for
the simple thread?

 

[metalminx24]

Is it Zurb's fault that Flinty is so easily distracted?

Look, a shiny!!!

 

[tree]

A shiny what?

 

[metalminx24]

Would you steal it if I told you?

 

[tree]

Why would I do that?

 

[zurb]

Do you like shiny things too?

 

[tree]

Is this a Tom Sawyer kind of thing and
if I say 'yes' then you'll foist off some
stuff for me to work on, polishing until
it's all shiny?

 

[zurb]

Would you enjoy doing that?
