Game 011 [Voice] - Another Year Wiser

[neverplaysfair]

Given the nature of time here in relation to our own worlds, would you say that birthdays here even have a point? You lose any time you spend here when you go home, and possibly regain it if you return, so it the end it arguably doesn't exist in any permanent capacity. But it's still time that you've lived and experience that you've gained.

I don't see anything wrong with it.

It makes things more interesting, anyway.

[neverplaysfair]

Then why does it negate all meaning to discussions about life?

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

It's hard to be alive and dead at the same time.

[neverplaysfair]

Hmm, I'd bet it's possible.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

I never said it wouldn't be possible. I'm just saying that it wouldn't be easy.

[neverplaysfair]

Fair enough. It's still fascinating to find out how others think.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

Well, what do you think?

[neverplaysfair]

I haven't decided. I'm mostly arguing for argument's sake.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

Then you're not really fascinating.

[neverplaysfair]

Perhaps not. But I can take a side if you'd rather I did.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

You should definitely take my side. It's the side that makes most sense, anyway.

[neverplaysfair]

And which is your side, beyond the cake?

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

It's just the cake.

[neverplaysfair]

I think everyone can agree on the cake.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

See? It makes sense.

[neverplaysfair]

But it also makes for very little discussion.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

Why would you want to discuss things when you can have cake?

Besides, it's not like you can reach a consensus anyway. It just sounds like a waste of time, to me.

[neverplaysfair]

The point isn't to reach a consensus. But it takes a certain appreciation of conversation to enjoy these things.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

You're the talky type, then. I prefer to do things.

But I guess talking about it once in a while isn't too bad.

[neverplaysfair]

Sure. We can put it that way.

Talking is fun. You can't be doing things all the time.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

You're doing things all the time, even if you don't think about it.

I think breathing counts.

[neverplaysfair]

In that case, whether you prefer to do things or not, you're always doing them. So your preference is irrelevant.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

I guess they don't. Still, though, it makes more sense than just talking about it.

[neverplaysfair]

When there's nothing special to be done, talking is a good way to kill some time.

[epicenity.livejournal.com]

I guess you really are bored.

Aren't they all about doing experimentations here?
