The Slice

How would you react?

You're in a room working on some non-computer task at a desk.

Some other member of your household comes into the room for just a moment. Then, as that person leaves, he or she turns off the light. Suddenly you are in the dark.

A) Quietly mutter a four-letter word. B) Say "Thank you!" C) Say "Hello?" D) Resist the temptation to assume the individual regards you as a non-person. E) Assume the person who snapped off the light is deep in thought. F) Remember a classic "Peanuts" strip where Linus is watching TV and Lucy walks over and turns it off. Linus offers up a loud, lengthy protest. Then, his indignation spent, he admits the show he had been watching wasn't any good. G) Other.
