[It's just a voice post because Leo had a shower idea and he's in no condition to be seen.]

A thought occurred to me. There's a lot of people in Heaven now who are from worlds that don't have things like cell phones or the internet or microwaves. I'm from one such world, so would others be interested in lessons on how to navigate a world like this one? I'm no expert, obviously, but since most of the "how to" guides and lessons you can find are aimed at people with a basic knowledge of what a computer or telephone is they're not exactly helpful. Unless you like beating your head against a wall in frustration, that is.

Oh but Mister, don't you know that doing that is the funniest thing ever?

voice

[brynwieldr]

I fail to see how.

voice

[yasei]

Eh- really? That just means that you've never tried it or tried it wrong.

voice

[brynwieldr]

How is offering to help people funny?

voice

[yasei]

[ Leo can't see Obi tip his head far to the side and nearly tip out of the tree he's sitting in but that happens. ]

Huh? I think that's pretty nice, but that's not what I was talking about?

voice

[brynwieldr]

What else could you have been talking about?

[Surely not banging your head against something.]

voice

[yasei]

Hitting your head against walls, obviously?

voice

[brynwieldr]

....no. Not obviously.

voice

[yasei]

Eh-- I thought for sure it'd be obvious, how is it not?

voice

[brynwieldr]

Most people would not even consider banging your head against a wall funny.

voice

[yasei]

No? How so?

voice

[brynwieldr]

....why would it be funny in the first place?!

voice

[yasei]

Because it's laughable?

[ You don't always laugh because you'r happy. But if you pretend, that's nice. ]

voice

[brynwieldr]

Not really.

voice

[yasei]

Eh- really? Not really? Why not really? It's totally laughable.

voice

[brynwieldr]

....how is it funny? Someone is either very sick or an utter idiot. Neither of those are funny.

voice

[yasei]

That's the point- watching people be idiots is fun. And so is being an idiot.

voice

[brynwieldr]

No, it's really not.

voice

[yasei]

Oh Mister... [ Obi sounds sad for him. Exaggeratedly so. ] You're losing out on life by not understanding that.

voice

[brynwieldr]

Do you have anything helpful to add to this conversation?

voice

[yasei]

Probably not! But not everything needs to be.
