This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on September 26, 2019). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.
While telling Prairie about the latest craze sweeping the internet and many of my friends, it seems I left out a pertinent piece of information.
“It’s called ‘Untitled Goose Game’, and apparently the whole point is to be an annoying jerk of a goose, running around, flapping your wings and honking at people. Apparently it’s a lot of fun.”
“This is…a video game, right? Not real world?”
At which point I cracked up and assured her that yes, it was a video game, and she didn’t need to be on guard, expecting random people to suddenly run up and start “honk”ing at her.
Though now, I kind of want to see an Untitled Goose LARP get going….
