Before I even say anything, I would like to point out that the mistletoe was not there when I climbed up here in the first place. I checked.

And that I have three days of shows to do next week when I get home - so I really did need to practice.

But the end result is the same: I'm stuck in a tree. Please help me down.

	I'm sorry. I should have let you ask them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, but would you have answered? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tightwire 2016-12-13 08:29 pm UTC (link)
	Depends on the question. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What if honesty didn't matter? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tightwire 2016-12-13 08:35 pm UTC (link)
	I prefer honesty. But I also enjoy elaborate storytelling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is there always a difference between telling the truth and telling a story? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tightwire 2016-12-13 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	Nah. But some people seem to think it stretches your credibility. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's funny to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just means there's more room for poetic license, I guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	destructobot 2016-12-13 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	I'd hope so. I feel like we take poetic license in everything we do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you're good enough with metaphors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	To be fully obnoxious: what isn't a metaphor? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tightwire 2016-12-13 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	A simile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	destructobot 2016-12-13 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe this can be my senior project. A simile is like a metaphor is like a simile: insert title projecting false importance and gravity of my studies here (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You can write the same paragraph in a different order for twenty pages. Like a literary Escher staircase. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And if you make it all the way to the end, there's a brief discussion about existential nihilism. Also a glitter explosion. As metaphor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tightwire 2016-12-14 05:38 pm UTC (link)
	Of course. Everyone loves some existential nihilism. Especially with a bit of a glittery pick-me-up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's the small things (that distract from the endless void). (Reply to this) (Parent)
