What a shame you can't be playful

I tried. I really did. BBSes. USENET. Web. Gopher. Gemini. sftp
file sharing.

Regardless the protocol veneer, it was always a search for fun-ly
intelligent others to interact with.

It's never panned out.

Sure, it could be (READ: probably is) me.

But somehow selves - apparently be definition - wind up taking
them*selves* far more seriously than the hilarity of <ineffable>
taking itself to be utterly separate, isolated selves/individuals
taking them*selves* far more seriously than... <endless
self-referential loop>

And *poof!* is it - the hoped-for interactive possibilities -
gone....
