A little fun for the unplugged among us. Name one thing from your Matrix and other people can say if they heard of it in theirs. Maybe find a little common ground.

I'll start: New York City.

Great.

I'm not going back in. So I think I'll skip it.

Feeling shy about the details of your world? You do know none of that stuff was real, right?

text;

[unwrit]

Yeah, I think I heard a little bit about that. But thanks for the tip.

And it's not shyness.

[ex_spins462]

Good old fashioned paranoia?

text;

[unwrit]

Paranoia is a lot of work.

[ex_spins462]

Working hard nets results.

So you're not shy, or paranoid... maybe you have something to hide?

Before you starting inventing something, the real reason is, I'm just not that interesting.

text;

[ex_spins462]

You were the only person who didn't immediately play along. That makes you pretty interesting.

text;

[unwrit]

Okay. I'm not that interesting, and I hate games.

text;

[ex_spins462]

I thought everyone liked games. Not even Ludo?

text;

[unwrit]

Not even Ludo.

Card games. I like card games. That's about it.

[ex_spins462]

Poker?

text;

[unwrit]

Sure. And others.

[A beat. Lest he seem too much of a joiner:]

Solitaire.

text;

[ex_spins462]

Only grandmothers and jailbirds play solitaire.

[unwrit]

That's not even close to being true.

text;

[ex_spins462]

100% factual. Which are you?

text;

[unwrit]

Neither. I'm neither.

text;

[ex_spins462]

Do you bake? Knit? Ever killed a guy?

text;

[unwrit]

You must have had a really interesting grandmother.

[Mentally adding back in the Matrix, since. You know. Grandmothers weren't real either.]

text;

[ex_spins462]

Maybe I just know some homebody criminals.

text;

[unwrit]

That one seems more likely.

I'm not one of those either.
