test drive meme


Want to app, or maybe you've already got one written up? Maybe you want to try before you buy? This is the meme for that, in the official pre-opening test drive meme! Of course, it's unfair to throw you into a sea without some life vest, so some prompts for possible situations have been given to you, and are as follows. These can all be in either log style, text, voice, or video; it's up to you!

YOUR OPTIONS


THE HOUSING GATE. While your new home is extremely lovely with a well stocked fridge and french doors and a carpet you could probably sleep comfortably on, especially if you're married and don't want to deal with awkward bed sharing, it's nice to go out every once in a while and explore the area. You do have a new car you know. Maybe you're a kid, joy riding, or taking you family on a little trip through the rows of houses that all look suspiciously alike. Or, perhaps, you've brought a friend along on a trip to somewhere else (you are running out of that low-fat butter you bought recently), maybe it's even a hitch-hiker! The possibilities are endless, but one thing is certain no matter the scenario: you're going to be stuck in this car for a while.


THE SHOPPING GATE. You're at work. Yeah, you've got a job now, working the 9 to 5, making money to buy that expensive food you like so much. Where do you work? Who are you working with? Do you like your boss? The answers to those questions are up to you. You should really pay attention to that customer coming up to you though. Since that is what you're getting paid for and all.


THE PLEASURE GATE. There's a show going on, although as you watch, the NPCs performing it really aren't up to snuff. Their choppy legwork and monotonous musical numbers leave much to be desired. It's really quite boring to see La Favola d'Orfeo so brutally murdered by untalented, robotic, minions such as these. Maybe texting is in order. Maybe walking out and leaving, catching another show or taking a stroll is in order? They really ought to hire different people to put these things on.


THE ALUMNI GATE. That obnoxious ringing alerts you that school has started yet again. Why do they make you come to this place when all the stupid teachers do is yammer about random things that no one really cares about. Since when did the economy really matter, anyway? Are you going to sit here and take this? Or walk around the school? The boring lady up front isn't really going to notice. Maybe you should go to lunch or chat up some school chums? Your youth isn't going to last forever, you know.


WHATEVER YOU WANT, BRO. Use your imagination and get creative on your own terms! This doesn't count as being in game completely, so feel free to take some liberties with events that could have happened, people you could have met! Just remember to stick to game structure and the rules.

I love stories. I will gladly hear tales of your home for as long as you wish to speak of it.

Um well... basically me and my new friends got invited to attend a new school. But the headmaster is this evil bear called monobear and he says that we can't escape without killing each other...

I've lost a lot of friends because of that jerk. That's why it's so hard for me to believe that I'm just here randomly, yanno? He's gotta be behind this too.

I see. That sounds truly awful, and this could all be a part of his plan.

Yeah, that's why I've been looking around everywhere for him.

Thanks a lot, Muncher! I wish you were around back at Hope Academy... erm, not that I'd want you to die or anything, but you'd make a great addition to the team!

[She already forgot your name sob I'm so sorry.]

[Mildly:] Eater. But, thank you, I understand your meaning.

Sorry, sorry! I'm really bad with names...

It is relatively close, so I don't mind.

I'm glad you're not mad or anything mad but still, it makes me sound really insincere! I gotta work on that...

We shall merely have to speak to each other more often.

I can do that.

Until we meet again.
