Buy skills Contacts Settings Log out News FAQ Wiki Donate You are on a bridge a meter above a fast moving river. Thick steel frames with large rivets suspend the bridge. A pair of shoes dangle from a cross beam above. Power lines run to the side of the bridge. There is an abandoned van. Water-logged debris idly bob or float by in the river. What is "it"? Always started, always continuing, always ending. Cannot be at the beginning because you would be past it. Cannot be at the end because you would be before it. The front of you must touch something and so too must the back. How else would there be a back or front? You have amnesia because while there is nothing at the back of you, there must be something.

Your blue jeans are shredded; the T-shirt, stretched 2 sizes larger, is more red than white, and your shoes are unaccounted for. Overtop it all you wear a yellow rain jacket. Perched atop your head is a crumpled paper party hat.
