Fun talk:Real life

Warning: Extreme Incoherency

At least one of the editors involved in this article/discussion was under the influence of:

• prescription medicine

• alcohol

• illicit drugs

• lack of sleep

• power, absolute power!

• the sheer joy of discovering that an article mentions dinosaurs

• all of the above

and has lapsed into incoherency. Mind this in bear.

Can someone please elucidate upon this? I thought that what happened when I moved away from the computer was known as "stress", "weakness", and "coffee", but perhaps I was wrong. --Linus^{(plot evil tech)} 14:15, 20 January 2008 (EST)

From what I've been told (in hushed whispers), it involves moving away from the computer and going into the big blue room through the heavy door on the front of your house. --Kels 14:34, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Stop there or you'll scare me. --Linus^{(plot evil tech)} 14:41, 20 January 2008 (EST)

I've been told there's a different sort of air out there... --Kels 14:48, 20 January 2008 (EST)

The "door" goes to the pub. Susan^Purrrrrrr 14:53, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Well, there's definitely a different sort of air in there! --Kels 15:06, 20 January 2008 (EST)

My mother forces me to experience it every now and then. Each experience takes years of therapy to recover from. DON'T DO IT MAN! -- Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 15:08, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Sometimes called the real world I try and avoid it as much as possible. 67.193.48.17 15:15, 20 January 2008 (EST)

TV Tropes seems to be. Can't look from before 2013. —Kazitor, ^pending 12:32, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

Small addition suggestion for "Money" section

I think it would amusing to do a game-like comparison of differences in economic ideology, since those are hotly debated topics among rational thinkers. Without explicitly mentioning the ideologies, it could be phrased:

"While some players find the money aspect encourages them to play the game more earnestly, others feel it detracts from the story and prevents them playing the game how they would prefer to play it." Sinclair Sanguine ^{talk to Sinclair} 07:49, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
