Dude: i'm screwed.
Dasch: how much.
Dude: that i'm not sure.
Dasch: that's understandable.
Dude: it's tricky to measure it.
Dasch: you can still try to do it.
Dude: how do you go about measuring how screwed i'm.
Dasch: i'm not saying there's a ruler or measuring system for it.
Dude: so even without them. how do i do it.
Dasch: you just explain it as accurately as possible.
Dude: if i explain it. how is that going to give me a measurement.
Dasch: being screwed does not have set measurements like length or width. so your words of explanation will describe how screwed you're.
Dude: then it's a description. not measurement.
Dasch: we could say it's description that measures how screwed you're.
Dude: hmm. okay.
Dasch: now. don't just idle there. go on. i've done my due diligence to explain how measuring how screwed you're works. don't let my efforts go wasted. describe your screwedness.
Dude: okay. so i ran out of things to watch or read. i have nothing to entertain myself with. so i'm screwed.
Dasch: well. are you screwed because you can't have fun without having something to watch or read?
Dude: yeah. i can no longer have fun. i'm screwed.
Dasch: you can be unscrewed though. if you fix the problem.
Dude: i can't find new things to watch or read. i did my search. there isn't anything worth it. so once again, i'm screwed.
Dasch: if you can't have fun watching or reading, you can try having fun doing something else.
Dude: it's not that i haven't thouoght of that. i don't know what new things i can do to keep having fun.
Dasch: well try anything besides watching or reading. there must be plenty you haven't tried. think about it.
Dude: what haven't i tried.
Dasch: well you haven't walked me for a long time.
Dude: i don't have fun doing that. if i had fun, i would do it everyday.
Dasch: sometimes some things take some time to feel fun. you probably need to walk me more than just a few times.
Dude: it's too much work. i gotta dress you, clean up after you, and wash you afterwards. i don't have a good feeling that this will become fun for me.
Dasch: okay. i admit it's unattractive. your reasons are realistic. yet, i wonder what different option could be.
Dude: i don't even walk myself. so yeah, walking you is even more unlikely.
Dasch: persuasive. sucks for me for not being walked more often. yet, it's how it is. still coming up with alternative.
Dude: see? i'm screwed. i don't know how to have fun anymore.
Dasch: don't give up so easily. there's gotta be. when two brains are at work. they better be better than just one.
Dude: i take my chance on you.
Dasch: how about tetris.
Dude: i haven't played for a while. so i don't know if i will like it.
Dasch: see. then you gotta give it a try.
Dude: i have a feeling it won't be fun.
Dasch: you don't know until you try it. you can't just assume it's not fun. you have to actually do it.
Dude: i mean i don't know where i can play the tetris. i also don't want to install an app. so i have to play one that i don't have to install.
Dasch: the more i talk to you, i realize how spoiled you are when it comes to finding something fun.
Dude: i don't like it when you sound like that. it usually means you're going to criticize me.
Dasch: just remember this rule. you do not deserve to have any fun. if you do not try something.
Dude: okay. okay. i'm glad enough you stopped your criticizing short. i will find a free tetris website somewhere. just give some sec.
Dasch: this is progress. i like change i'm seeing here.
Dude: i will be back. (10min later) i just finished playing.
Dasch: okay. was it fun.
Dude: for a while at least.
Dasch: you played because it was fun.
Dude: until it got so fast and i couldn't keep on going.
Dasch: you lost and game ended.
Dude: yeah. that was it. i didn't feel like playing again.
Dasch: at least it was fun at first trial. you stopped playing because it wasn't fun enough to play again.
Dude: yeah true.
Dasch: that means you should play tetris at least once a day.
Dude: i guess that's valid point.
Dasch: it's not much but you're less screwed now.
Dude: i know but one tetris game is not long enough. i gotta have many more. so i'm still screwed.
Dasch: yeah, you can't be playing tetris all the long. it's only fun for once a day. you gotta find other ones.
Dude: playing tetris actually gave me one idea.
Dasch: why don't you already go try it?
Dude: okay i will be back.
(after 30 mins)
Dasch: dude, are you still not done?
Dude: i think i'm almost there. this face is almost all orange. i think i'm really close.
Dasch: it's been more than thirty minutes. i hope you're aware.
Dude: i don't know. i have feeling that i have to finish this.
Dasch: but let me check you on this.
Dude: what.
Dasch: are you having fun.
Dude: i'm not sure i think i'm more angry because i can't solve this freakin' cube.
Dasch: woah, you want to have fun not anger.
Dude: i don't know what this feeling is. i just feel like this little cube should be easy to solve.
Dasch: take some deep breath. isn't this even your first time trying rubik's cube?
Dude: i've known it but only played it today.
Dasch: you're supposed to struggle alot with it. it's not straightforward like tetris.
Dude: that's what i mean. this is nothing like tetris. i'm not used to this. i'm starting to lose confidence that i can solve this.
Dasch: just remember why you started to play it in the beginning.
Dude: i forgot what it was. i don't care what it was. i just want to solve this damn little cube.
Dasch: you don't want to smash it. you are playing that on your phone. don't smash your phone.
Dude: i don't know if i can have fun solving this problem. i like rotating the columns and rows. but i find myself keep doing that forever. the faces aren't matched with right colors. deng it!
Dasch: i think you need to stop at this point. i highly doubt you're having fun with this. you're losing your temper.
Dude: i really think i'm getting close to feel so dumb that i'm gonna just solve this problem by destorying its existence.
Dasch: back to Earth. back to Earth. it's just a cube. it's a game. you're worth is not defined by this game.
Dude: i'm not sure if i was haivng fun or i was actually obsessed with it. i don't think i was feeling happy but more frustrated and impatient.
Dasch: it means you didn't enjoy the solving process. you were too focused on getting it done immediately. you cannot enjoy its whole without enjoying its process. the process is actually 99 percent of it.
Dude: i'm gonna have to watch out that rubik's cube. i want to make sure it doesn't anger me ever again.
Dasch: just remember, you are doing it for fun, not competition.
Dude: i'm gonna solve it. once i start enjoying the process. that rubik's cube is so screwed. i'm gonna end it so bad.
Dasch: make sure that tiny cube doesn't screw you up. remember you were screwed up in the first place because you had no fun.
Dude: watch me how i unscrew myself by finishing this rubik's cube one day.
Dasch: okay, i guess you now found what you gotta do to have fun.
Dude: i didn't expect it. it's not like i found it fun to play right away. it's more like i decided to have fun with it from now on because i can't solve it now but want to solve it so bad.
Dasch: the rubik's cube got you totally hooked. it's giving you that hanging fruit that's not too low but out of your reach for now.
Dude: i want that fruit. the fruit shaped like rubik's cube. four-sided colors. i'm gonna have a glorious bite into it. break and lose all my teeth.
Dasch: well enjoy the rest.
Dasch exits the room. He turns back to see Dude holding his cellphone tightly in his grip.
Dude: deng it! three colors again.
Dasch leaves out of sight.
Dude: how can anyone solve this? this doesn't make sense.
Dude throws the cellphone on the bed. With his fingers rubbing his chin, Dude blinks his eyes at the ceiling and reaches out for his phone.
Dude: what if i try it this way... hmm.
