Questions Only — the Christmas Edition

[countessalmirena]

Let’s try a new word game for the festive season.

The idea is to progress a scene or storyline, using questions only. We can only post one sentence per post, and it must be a question. Hopefully the scene can come to a natural conclusion with a funny ending, after a certain number of posts (let’s say between 10 and 20 questions… as a rough idea).

The person who finishes the scenario can then start the next “round” with a new scenario-starting question, and so on.

I envisage this lasting up to middle of January (hopefully), and then coming to an end as the Christmas season itself will have done.

(We can always start a non-Christmas edition in a new thread if this takes off.)

Please keep the scenarios to a Christmas theme, however vaguely or tenuously.

And we’re off!

Does Santa really give Christmas gifts to the reindeer?

Would Dickens have any truck with intruders into his Christmas Carol?

Could Joh have bought the rights to all Dickens' works, perhaps paying peanuts for them?

[countessalmirena]

Would I ever have slept through such a travesty, and would I not smack any such thieving jackanapes with an empty soup bowl about the head if he so much as essayed such a jelly-hearted usurping?

[mytreechange]

Did Dickens use those peanuts to make a satay sauce, or perhaps peanut brittle?

[countessalmirena]

Can we find Dickensian satay sauce in supermarkets?

[mytreechange]

Do you really think our local supermarket would keep stock of anything even slightly unusual?

Haven’t you ever found Vegemite ice cream in Woolies?

Why would you want to raise your blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar, all at the same time?

[ambercat16]

Why would I want Vegemite ice cream from Woolies when I can get

Vegemite Hot Cross Buns from Coles?

[twyngwyn]

Aren’t they all offering a slow death?
