OK, I’m playing this game that user waitingtoderail introduced
and I love it, you can play it as many times as you like and still amuse yourself, at least. I love accidental meaning in general; the illusion of meaning, that is, arising from randomness. The million monkeys pounding keyboards and that sort of thing. Oh, and this game also reminds me of the "interviews" they’d do on the Dr Demento radio show when I was a kid, where the "answers" would be song clips.
I first excluded my classical and Christmas music, as well as songs in languages other than English, since all of those will decrease readability or would just not be as interesting.
The rules:
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING!
