Will this one do?
Was your card theā¦erā¦ 20 of Rooks? (Wtf?)
Can you think of another one, but this time not show it to me?
You canāt see the eight of clubs Iām thinking of, right?
Shouldnāt you have mentioned that part up front? Shall I switch to using a standard deck then too?
Do you want to use my irrational deck?
Shouldnāt there be a fractional heart on there?
Okay, what now?
Would you like to try again? Oh, that wasnāt addressed to me was it?
Arenāt I getting confused?
Was this your card?
Close enuff?
Can I say Iām starting to see it now?
So does this prove we are the products of OtherMichaelās diseased imagination?
Itās like the place is full of happy mutants or something isnāt it?
Or something?
Huh?
(
I just feel like this really isnāt in keeping with the spirit of the thing. As much as I like annotations, there just seems not to be any kind of a formula for excusatory reasoningness to the post-horizontal rule parentheticality. Now, if one could use the opportunity to opine on the topic of something relevant within the jurisdiction of such a principality, perhaps we could establish some ground rules for such a territory but as it happens, and the stakes being so high, we really need the progenitor in the form of one @othermichael to forge some legal writ and plant a flag of occupation to dismiss emnity in this dangerous zone. )
Donāt I sometimes call him on the parenthetical statements anyway, especially when they are overly long?
Have I mentioned, Iām a bit of a purist?

Donāt I agree?
(Yes. Also, no likes have I.)
