One sentence game

[misterNNL]

Confused can sometimes be a constant state of mind when considering the down side up world we live in today.

[ChrisBcritter]

Today, I heard the robin sing; today, the thrush is on the wing...

[Tom Geiger]

Wing it if you have no idea what you are doing

[Ace-Garageguy]

Doing a job poorly and thinking it's great...how is that even possible?

[BeakDoc]

Possible solutions to existing problems without experimentation are merely hypotheses.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Hypotheses that aren't proven yet somehow get endlessly repeated as "facts" are one very seriously destructive behavior of mainstream and social media.

[misterNNL]

Media is evidently focused on "If it bleeds it leads" for endlessly repeating bad news every hour on the hour.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Hour after hour of "if it bleeds it leads" has been largely replaced with "if it whines it shines".

[BeakDoc]

Shines like a new coin, brass does, if you mix Brasso and Zippo fluid and apply plenty of friction and elbow grease.

[NYLIBUD]

Grease is the word,it’s got groove,it’s got meaning….

[Ace-Garageguy]

"Meaning" is becoming more and more in the mind of the beholder, kinda like they used to say about beauty being in the eye, etc.; sadly, when word meanings are changed to accommodate dogma, real communication suffers.

[stitchdup]

suffers for the pain and lives for the joy

[misterNNL]

Joy can come from unexpected sources.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Sources of "expert" information on the internet can be contradictory, and without a well of what used to be called "general knowledge", it can be impossible to tell the bull exhaust from the truth.

[misterNNL]

Truth and the content there of is as varied as those proposing to know what that content actually is.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Is there only one objective Truth, or is it, as some would have us believe, entirely subjective...a gooey morass dependent on personal perspective and other irrelevancies?

[BeakDoc]

Irrelevancies and personal perspectives are the things that prevent firsthand accounts that may be very well true from being the “truth.”

[Ace-Garageguy]

"Truth" could once be characterized with examples such as "A is A", or 1+1=2, but there is an ever more vocal group of "thinkers" insisting that a thing is not itself, and that arithmetic and math are not tools representative of (and thereby making possible the reliable manipulation of) reality, but are arbitrary constructs invented by one group to "oppress" another group; how these folks think an airplane flies by relying on arbitrary, meaningless gibberish is quite beyond my powers of imagination.

TYPO

[Little Timmy]

Imagination is something I have been accused of having to much of.

[Classicgas]

Of course I'm mad at you she said.

[Ace-Garageguy]

"Said" is pronounced saa-eed sometimes when it's an Arabic-derived name.

[slusher]

Name is what everyone is changing the spelling of..

[NYLIBUD]

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.

[Tom Geiger]

Mine field of dog poop, that backyard of my neighbor!

[Ace-Garageguy]

Neighbor love thy, but get caught not.
