OOC CHATTER POST #9

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, I'm cleaning out your litterbox.

Please put a subject line in your posts to help people sort through new conversations!

Hitchcock famously described the difference between surprise and suspense. Say we're having an ordinary conversation and then a bomb explodes. That's surprising, but before that, the scene was rather uninteresting. Alternatively, you could show the audience the bomb being planted and that it's on a timer. Now the ordinary conversation is LOADED because we are participants; we want to tell the characters to get out of there! This is suspense. Hitchcock was an advocate for suspense.

Anyway, I'm in a library right now and I look over and see a semi-familiar sight: a man taking a nap. But then I notice what is on the ground next to him.

THIS. IS. SUSPENSEFUL.

oh my god even I'm waiting for that thing to go off and freak me the fuck out

I hope he falls off those chairs for making everyone wait like this

wait, but. in the library?

did this person seriously bring an alarm clock into a library instead of a using phone like everyone else

or is this the library's alarm clock

chaotic evil

absolutely chaotic evil

It was his alarm. In our library.

It went off AND HE RESET IT, ROLLED OVER, AND WENT BACK TO SLEEP.

Kas this person is clearly a monster

i find him Suspect and i think he is an alien masquerading poorly as a person. i bet he named himself ford prefect.

I suspect he is going to use the backpack and then return it to the store. Because clearly he doesn't have respect for our institutions.

SEND HIM TO THE MOON
