Game of Telephone!

[jhameia]

Watch tariq_kamal and I try to come up with a new name for the game!


Jha: WHY ARE FOLKTALES SO WEIRD?

Tariq: because no one actually writes folktales?
you know, authors them?
it's basically fanfiction
but without the fiction?
so you get a whole bunch of fans
spread across hundreds of years
each playing a game of Chinese Whispers with their recipients
until the end-tale is all messed up?

Jha: Chinese Whispers!
you buggers do it too okay!
XD
fcuking Telephony.

Tariq: DUN BLAEM ME
BLAEM WHITEY
HE CALLS IT THAT
I had to look at Wikipedia to find the other name
which was Telephone

Jha: exactly!
except i guess they had to call it something before telephone

Tariq: apparently the French call it Arab Telephone.
...
ahh, the French

Jha: oh

Tariq: taking out all the fun in casual racism

Jha: these Westerners
blaming it all on the Orientals!

Tariq: WE SHOULD TOTALLY CALL IT "DUTCH POST"

Jha: or
"AMERICAN EMAIL"

Tariq: XD
better better better
BRITISH NEWSPAPERS

Jha: hey! i like british newspapers, they're better than american ones.

Tariq: oooh
even the Daily Mail?

Jha: ....
FAUX ENTERTAINMENT!

Tariq: XD
AMERICAN CABLE TELEVISION!

Jha: AMERICAN REALITY TV!

Tariq: COMMITTEE FOR CREATION AND USE OF NEW FRENCH TERMINOLOGY!

Jha: okay i cant top that

Tariq: aw, come on
I can.

Jha: XD

Tariq: ...
hmm

because WHAT GERMAN SECRET CAMERA SHOW DOES TO "HUMOR" doesn't really scan
or

Jha: lol

Tariq: WHAT EAST EUROPEAN ANIMATION DOES TO "COMPREHENSIBLE STORYLINE" doesn't either
...
MODERNIST THEATRE!
...
do you know what we just did.

Jha: oh dear what?

Tariq: if you take a look at the past 20 lines
we just did what Telephone actually does to a message

Jha: that's fucking brilliant!
we are SUBCONSCIOUS GENIUSES

Tariq: SEXY SUBCONSCIOUS GENIUSES

Jha: THIS MUST BE LJ'D

Tariq: UH OH
