Choose Your Own Fate, Online Version




We've all read those Choose Your Own Adventure books in your youth. Or maybe last week. So this is hardly original. I've just done what so many people have done already: computerize a good idea.

The Day of the Beast

Dateline: June 6, 6pm.

You've been studying for finals on a warm June evening. It's been a few hours, and while it's nice to be alone to study, you're bored. (as if it's ever NICE to study...) Bored like Curious George without his Ritalin. Bored like who needs studying anyway. (By the way, your parents are away for awhile.) It's hot in the kitchen, and in the living room, or the den as fancy people might call it, there's an air conditioner. (Possibly the single most important invention in the history of the world.) Unsurprisingly, you move camp into the living room. But what to do now that you're here?

Will you:

Go online and check your email.

or

Turn on the radio.

Hey, you're lazy too... so that explains the lack of originality.
