The Answer is a Question game

[Older Fish]

Does that mean I need to address this question to a mirror?

[poppy]

Do you make a habit of questioning your mirror and what sort of response do you get?

[Older Fish]

Isn't the practice of questioning a mirror fabled to get one an honest, well-researched opinion?

[Talisman]

That depends on how much make up you wear, as if you cake it on, the mirror will be lying.

[poppy]

Do you think the Wicked Queen's talking mirror, from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, has somehow come into your possession?

[Older Fish]

Does one have to be a wicked queen to use a talking mirror?

[Talisman]

I think it helps, although you could just as easily be an ugly sister.  

[Older Fish]

Which part of "the answer is a question" don't you understand?

[poppy]

But don't you think an answer is more entertaining when the question is misunderstood?

[Older Fish]

Is it the question that is entertaining, or the comical misunderstanding?

[poppy]

Isn't anything comical always more entertaining?

[itsmeagain]

Can serious topics also be comical in a sense?

[poppy]

What sense?

[itsmeagain]

Any sense you may name?

[poppy]

Common sense?

[Older Fish]

Do you find common sense amusing?

[poppy]

Which of my previous questions (entirely due, I might add, to an enquiring and serious mind     )  led you to entertain the idea that I could ever view common sense in such a frivolous manner?

What is common sense?

[poppy]

Is it something you've tried googling?

[itsmeagain]

Is it, perchance, worth googling?

[poppy]

Have you found googling, in the past, to be unprofitable?

[itsmeagain]

Perchance;on occasion.And you?

[poppy]

Why do you ask?

[itsmeagain]

Is one not obliged to request, with due politeness, information pertaining to life?

[poppy]

Do you feel I may have some useful information to share?
