jackofallgeeks | The Brothers Three and the Irrelevant Coin. (Reply)

So, over the weekend I went to watch my little siblings while my parents flew out to California. Tim had his girlfriend come over for the day and she brought "V for Vendetta." Just as we were about to eat dinner, a couple of Tim's friends, Sean and James I think they were, showed up. Seems he (or she, I'm not sure) invited them without giving me a heads-up. It wasn't a problem, just caught me by surprise. Anyways, this led to a long span of talking and joking, until people started wondering aloud if we were going to watch the movie, keep talking or... some third thing. There was a quick Brothers Three moment in there that went something like this:

SEAN (having just acquired a coin to make our decision): So, heads we watch the movie and tails we... what?

ANDREW: See, that's what I don't get. There's really nothing else TO do. It's either watch the movie, or not. I don't see why this is so hard to deci-

GREG: Just flip the coin!

We all broke out in laughter then for a good five minutes. Then Sean flipped the coin.
And it came up tails.

We watched the movie anyways.
