[Sharon, ⭒botm leader⭒]

So this is the place for all of you philosphers, intellectuals, poetry fanatics, movie quoters, and song-lyrics-memorizers to have your own version of a First Thoughts game.

Your post should be your first thought after reading the post right before yours. Unlike in the original game, you are not limited to a word or short phrase. Feel free to have an extended response!

Have fun!

LONG AND COMPLICATED MESSAGES

I do not long and complicated messages, I do not like them, [Sam I am].

I know it doesn't rhyme!🙃

Dr. Sharon Loves to Read

Doctor Seuss is amazing

[Clare]

The fact that he got kicked off his ether high school or college (I don't remember which) newspaper for inappropriate stuff. (I'm pretty sure)

[Clare]

I'm not certain though.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Doctor Seuss is not a criminal and the fact that his books are being banned because of racism ((PLEASE explain how And to Think that I Saw it on Mulberry Street is racist)) is a load of bs. (Yeah it annoys me that so many books are banned because of "racism" Like really. We can't even say anything anymore without being banned a racist. And no, I'm not racist, I have a couple friends that are ((And i think it's very wrong)) but I'm not. I'm just fed up with all the BLM stuff and other similar things.)

(Yeah I just did some research and it looks like he got caught partying and drinking alcohol while in college)

[Bella off hiatus]

I hate how so many books that are part of our society are being censored, and negative books are promoted. This actually reminds me of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Haven’t read the book yet. (I know you were joking Olivia. 😆)

[Elijah]

My first thought after reading the post before me is this painting of Ophelia(a character in Hamlet) I saw a few days ago:



(Apparently, I first noticed the name Olivia, but I confused Olivia with Ophelia.)

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Is she dead??

[Elijah]

(@Elisabeth If I remember correctly, she committed suicide in the play)

First thought:
Several people singing and swaying.

[Sharon, ⭒botm leader⭒]

Stephen wrote: "(Thanks for the new game thread Sharon 😊)"

(Absolutely!😉)

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

(@Elijah, interesting. I haven’t read any Shakespeare yet. It’s sounds so full of death)

Those horrifying mourners and fluters in The Chosen.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

(After she goes mad?? What is Shakespeare? I guess I need to go pull my copy of Hamlet out and read it.)

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

That’s horrifying. And gross. What book is it? 😂

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Yikes. These plays are dark 😂 that paragraph just made me remember a George MacDonald book in which someone is found dead in a basement room. Now I need to remember which book it was and go read it.

[Elijah]

First thought:
Old MacDonald had a farm. E-I-E-I-O.
And on that farm, he had a pig. E-I-E-I-O.
With an oink oink here.
And an oink oink there.
Here an oink.
There an oink.
Everywhere an oink oink.
Old MacDonald had a farm. E-I-E-I-O.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

And on his farm he had a cow
E-I-E-I-O
With a moo moo here and a moo moo there.
Here a moo there a moo.
Everywhere a moo moo.
Old Macdonald had a farm
E-I-E-I-O

[Elijah]

(My first thought should probably be Animal Farm, but for no reason the word pig immediately reminded me of The Three Little Pigs)

First thought:
The three little pigs built three houses, and the wolf came and destroyed two.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

(Oh please Stephen, not Lizzy. That name never feels like it fits me. 😂 If you must call me a nickname my actual nickname is Bets. But yes, he’s an amazing author.)

“I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down!”

[Lydia (on hiatus)]

First thought: a show for preschoolers that was basically 3 little pigs but the wolf turned nice at the end 😡

[Shekinah]

First thought: the preschoolers must have pretty lax parents

[✨ tazannah - not accepting friend requests ✨, ⭒spiritual leader⭒]

This is so entertaining to read 😂

[Lydia (on hiatus)]

Pinky And The Brain???!!!!
My first thought: We are animaniacs, we are zany to the max 🎶

[Lydia (on hiatus)]

Yep! It's really funny 😆

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

But for all we know he might look like the brain irl 🤷‍♀️

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Unless he would change his pfp so we can see what he looks like...

(Can I ask where in the world my new nickname came from? Guys, call me Bets if you wanna shorten my name 😂)

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Hey I don’t have instagram! But if it’s still there I’ll go check it out 😂

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Stephen wrote: "Not fair cause I can’t call you two ugly 😂"

I'll take that as a compliment 😂😊

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Stephen wrote: "Hey, I posted my Instagram link on my profile. You all could have known what I look like 😅"

(You should repost the link on your profile since it ain't there anymore 😂)

[Elijah]

First thought:
Laughing; praise; witty

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Thesaurus

[✨ tazannah - not accepting friend requests ✨, ⭒spiritual leader⭒]

I remember what he looks like

His actual face used to be his gr pfp

[Elijah]

First thought:

Stephen's face and Stephen's cat.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

His face looks like his cat? (Yes that was my first thought 😂)

(I don’t remember what he looks like. I never saw him except when he had his current pfp and he had some ugly purple creature in it for a bit too. Waiiiit, was that him?? The little purple thing???)

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

(Ok makes sense. That’s why he had that profile for a bit.)

[✨ tazannah - not accepting friend requests ✨, ⭒spiritual leader⭒]

olivia.margaret wrote: "(yes he's a little purple rat lizzy)"

Yup, that’s what I remember 😁

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Than yeah I know what he looks like as well. Stephen you’re a handsome feller. Or rather a handsome purple rat. 😁😂

[Elijah]

(@Elisabeth Haha, no. I'm not even sure if Stephen has a cat or not. It's just that somehow my first thought was an image of Stephen playing with his cat.)

First thought:
Several people are bullying Stephen.

[Elijah]

First Thought:

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

(It’s all in good fun Stephen. All in good fun)

My first thought to that picture:

Looks like something I would draw. Sorta stick figure ish.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Poor Stephen will survive. He’s stronger than all of this.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Questionnnnn… is your name pronounced Stefan or Steven?

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

I’ve been pronouncing it Steefan. But I will change it to a v sound now. lol. Do you ever go by Steve?

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

First thought:

Dating websites are bosh 😂

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

First thought: you must. Otherwise I’ll go on assuming you’re a purple rat. You should find the land of NIMH. You might find a fellow intelligent rat there to do life with. They’re not purple tho.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Pretty please? 🙏🏼🥲
