Sounds like something that would happen in an Adam Sandler movie.

He's walking down the street in NYC, and some guy runs up behind him and slaps him on the back, yells, "You're it!" and runs off.

    Give this premise to Musk and he'll swear his AI can make it a movie in a week!

    I mean, it's not impossible for xitter's pedobot to make movies I hear (which is how it earned its name). If you gave me and my old film studio enough cocaine we could script, storyboard, and splice the clips together in about a week. It would not be pretty or up to my [this gets shown to anyone ever] standards for my work, but it could be done.

    The only dude at the studio who liked cocaine was the executive producer, and we closed the studio in 2005. We'd realistically need different stimulants or more time

    And the tags get exponentially more forceful as they chase each other down the street, through the park, across a university campus, over the basketball course, until it devolves into a full-on fistfight in the girls locker room ending with Adam Sandler delivering an overly dramatic tearful confession about how he actually cheated at tag that time in school because he was jealous that his friend spent more time with cute Amy, because he missed his friend so much. That means his friend was actually the one who was "it", so they chase each other again.

    Oh we realize. We are waiting. Poised for the moment you least expect to strike and pass on the dreaded curse of it.

    Any day now.

    I stopped being "it" the same time I lost my virginity. Now she's "it." 😌

    This is kind of like the movie Tag.

    Nah. Being It always ended when the game ended and a new It was picked at the start of the next game whenever that was.

    I think “it” resolves when the game ends

    I was very slow as a kid due to juvenile arthritis. Thankfully, I outgrew it, but I can almost guarantee I am still it. This is such a whimsical and delightful thought. Thank you for the smile today stranger. I definitely needed it.

    what's worse? not knowing, or knowing?

    It's probably me. I never was fast enough for tag. I was great at hide and seek though.

    Due to certain legal contracts and ancient rituals, all "Its" revert to a single person after not tagging for 25 minutes.

    That person?

    Tom Hanks.

    There's an entire movie dedicated to this idea. Called Tag.

    No, I was tagged when we went inside when the next lesson started, so it was unfair and didn't count, but I tagged them back and that also didn't count

    So that means they never touched anyone in all that time? Highly unlikely.
