Context and recorded outcome
- Title: marry, kill, or in flagrante delicto Activity premise: So, since Julia is such a cereal fan choosing an overeating bird, Activity description: each of us is going to be assigned some cereals Rules: marry: eat it every day for the rest of our lives; kill: never eat it again; one more time: have it just one more wonderful time Interaction mode: assigned options with primary answers and peer preferences Adjudication method: presenter and peer preferences Full setup context: Well, now we're going to play a game of marry, kill, or in flagrante delicto. Oh, yeah. I'm still annoyed that you messed up the order just to make that joke. So, since Julia is such a cereal fan choosing an overeating bird, so what we're going to do is each of us is going to be assigned some cereals, and then we have to choose whether we will eat it every day for the rest of our lives, whether we will never eat it again, or whether we will have it just one more wonderful time. Okay. Are we supposed to comment on that? Sounds great. Obviously, that's a thing people do. Makes tons of sense. Final phrase attribution: Who introduces and explains the marry, kill, or in flagrante delicto cereal game?: Curtis

Choice: one more time: Special K; kill: Cheerios; marry: Honey Bunches of Oats Answer qualification: I think Special K is the most exciting one, so I guess I'll fuck it. I might as well get the one that has more, like, texture difference. This was such a confusing three to throw at me.

Choice: kill: Special K; one more time: Honey Bunches of Oats; marry: Cheerios Answer qualification: The correct answers were, so, kill Special K, because I don't know what that is.

I mean, Reese's Puffs, of the three you just said, is the most delicious. I love peanut butter. I love chocolates. You don't necessarily need to have with milk. You can just eat the Trix. Honeycomb is fine. But, you know, Trix are for kids. And I'm a big kid.
