SO THE GAME OF THE MYSTERIOUS TEXTS
Them: Wouldn't you like to know
Them: Well I'm not telling
Me: Okay, so you know me well enough to know my name and play games with me. you also have a New Jersey area code. So that narrows it down. But from there, I can't recognize the speech pattern.
Me: How do you win? You had a purpose in speaking to me, so I sit in the place of power. Do you want to talk to me more than I want to know your identity?
Me: (after some time) Because I haven't a clue who you are. And you're interesting.
Them: Sorry, I am a little busy right now.
Me: So you count it as cheating. Fine.
Them: I wasn't playing yet
Me: Oh how I do love a good game.
Them: Good games are good
Me: How do you feel about the Statue of Liberty?
Them: I like her natural color more
Me: Sprinkles or jimmies?
Me: Talyor ham or pork roll?
Me: So, if there's a game, there must be rules.
Me: You tell me. Or at least give me something to work off of.
Them: How about, at the least, I begin to speak like myself again
Me: Because you're terrible.
