We understand the rules of the game just fine. (And we are doing what we would do IRL, with visibly creating the chapeau.)
We just don't think that the game is real. It's different than saying we don't get it.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Every post makes me more confused. It's like I started watching a movie in the middle, in a foreign language, no subtitles. And yet, I don't want to stop.

Kristin, how come you can't sleep, peanut?

Nilly are you feeling better?

Kat, I had a migraine today that knocked me out for most of the day, so I basically slept through the entire morning, afternoon, and evening with a couple of dog-walking breaks.
I started my "day" after 7PM; hence, insomnia.

Kristin, when are you supposed to move? [Edit: oh, I do hope you feel better now!]
Kat, thanks for asking, and yes, I do. I even managed to TA for 7 hours straight yesterday (and was quite proud of me). How are you doing? Do you teach during the summer?

then it makes sense that you're awake. I SHOULD be asleep, as should all the people at my house because we have an early airport run tomorrow.
Oooooohhhhhh... That's what we should be chapeauing for... whoever is it has to go to LAX.
