Instructions

Alternate sections are marked Say and Play. The Say sections are spoken or sung to an improvised tune in a stentorian and condescending manner, as a traffic court judge lecturing a recidivist speeder. Read as though the text makes perfect sense, even though its grammar and meaning may make sudden, unexpected turns.

The Play sections use an ordinary five-line staff with oval note heads () interspersed with diamond () and cross () note heads. Play in a manner that contrasts with the lecturer's attitude. Be mocking or solicitous or calm or resigned or anything else appropriate.

• I've used bar lines set off groups of notes. Groups should be observed by accent, phrasing, pauses or some other way.
• The cross () indicates some non-standard noise, like a multiphonic or a strum behind the bridge or a dropped drumstick or a cheese-grater arpeggio or something else. Use your imagination.
• The diamond () indicates a note that is one semitone (in either direction) different from the preceding note.
• Rhythm, tempo and dynamics are entirely up to the performer. Since no clef is specified, you can pick that as well.

You can play in concert with other performers, who may play other versions of this piece, or other any other materials, composed or improvised. When playing with others, the Say sections should be performed as disruptively as possible, and the Play sections should be played sensitively, with utmost regard to enhancing the performance of the other players.

Say: That's not something that has "little inherent sophistication".

Play:

Say: Then what needs work is your power of deductive reasoning.

Play:

Play:

Say: You're presupposing that it "doesn't work". But Blast! is irrelevant to this discussion is quite irrelevant. Ironically, above you called this the relevant evidence. No studying necessary; just a "try". I succeeding in shooting down your argument.

Play:

Say: And how is he relevant to the issue?

Play:

Say: Where did I say it was "good"?

Play:

Say: In case it makes a difference, both Sparke and Hart were born in England.

Play:

Say: The theme of Niccolo Paganini represents the "same materials" in this case is John Doe, who crossposted to that newsgroup, thus my response is appearing there as well.

Play:

Say: Then apparently you had already read the message from someone else, then that quotation was in the style of Bartok's "Concerto for Orchestra", to which I was replying was crossposted to that judgment.

Play:

Say: Undoing the damage you've done by adding irrelevant newsgroups.

Play:

Say: You're supporting the troll who initiated the problem??? Illogical.

Play:

Say: Doe cannot win an argument can be creative in other ways. Why the distinction?

Play:

Say: Star Spangled? Stars and Stripes? Anchors Aweigh? Semper Fi?

Play:

Say: I'm sure that some of those uses have been in response to Professor Plum, who, as I just pointed out with the Bartok "Concerto for Orchestra".

Play:

Say: The aforementioned work qualifying, in my opinion. That's why it's non sequitur.

Play:

Say: You should, because Pudge complained about the genre.

Play:

Say: Incorrect, as I expected.

Say: Where is this alleged refusal? To refuse to provide the evidence so that an argument can be creative in other ways. Why the distinction?

Play:

Say: You're presupposing that it's too long for its own good. He simply posted "bait".

Play:

Say: Why don't you just practice what you wrote just before I responded with "Bingo".

Play:

Say: I haven't been discussing the issue that Doe was discussing. It shows that YOU are determined to turn a page. Also note that typists don't need to clear fluid from their typewriter, but repetitive stress syndrome is now recognized as a non-rhetorical question.

Play:

Say: I can imagine. All sounds very similar to our organization here.

Play:

Say: Note: no response.

Play:

Say: You're welcome.

Play:

Say: Maybe I do understand how normal people communicate. They do NOT communicate by posting "bait" here.

Play:

Say: Incorrect; you've got it backwards. "The guy ask question of me."

Play:

Say: I'm sure that some of the number of times you've played it.

Play:

Say: Orbital eccentricity. I've also observed a lot of human eccentricity.
