The Rules

The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth – Albert Camus

you cannot play backgammon
if you eat yogurt

you cannot shoot BBs
if you own a watch

you cannot ride a bike
if your name starts with a vowel

you cannot play bridge
if you have red hair

you cannot sing carols
if you can spell quetzalcoatl

you cannot eat corn flakes
if you are an only child

you cannot play the harmonica
if you have an older sister

you cannot feed the pigeons
if you are left-handed

you cannot watch the sunset
if you have freckles on your nose

you cannot read Tolstoy
if you had an appendectomy

do not assume the rules
do not apply to you

they do
