“Who doesn’t love games!” gushed Amhazing.

“Oh not you again!” said N.

“I’m baaack!” greeted Amhazing cheerfully.

“Okay, yes, I want to play a game,” said N with some degree of resignation, “Can we move on?”

“Sure. This new game, it’s based on that classic one. The one made up of three seemingly random objects you find around your house? Well, that some people find around their house.”

“I guess it depends on if you went through that pet rock phase or not,”

said Amhazing.

“But I feel pretty safe thinking you’re going to have paper and scissors. Especially if you’ve got kids,” added Amhazing helpfully, “Just don’t run with them. The scissors.”

“Not that you actually need those objects, because you use your hands anyway. Most people have those. For those that don’t, we have technology now. Technology just like Joshua, but better.

“Anyway.. In this version of Rock Paper Scissors, instead we use Bridge, Bomb or Barrier,” explained Amhazing.

“But you said Barricade?” interjected N.
