Switch Places!
I honestly try not to give up any contextual spoilers to what I have in mind for any post of mine, but when other members just quote the first five words I state, or place me in a virtual headlock over parenthetical, silly thoughts I just included to give you a piece of my mind as I was jotting down this post, it doesn't serve me well to ever voice an opinion again if the 3 second snippet is taken, and the other 30 minutes I spent composing is trashed. Maybe it's the everything you say, I'll think the opposite mentality that the internet has bred? THIS is why I have such a contempt for sarcasm (and also, I don't understand it half the time either).
That's why I mostly curtailed my involvement in general discussion. It's too hard to keep up with the joneses, and actually be let alone to be serious.
The lying down game was a post and thematic expression idea I received from a Polish forum/blog (I think everything is a blog nowadays). I'd give an example of it, but again, that would be "contextually-spoiling" its awesome premise (first use of the A-word this month).
