‘So, about the five elements.’
‘Wait what? Surely it’s four, four elements?’
‘Nah, I’m pretty sure it’s five. Fire, water, rock, paper, scissors.’
‘Yeah, I’m sure paper isn’t in there. Nor is scissors, come to think of it. It’s, what is it… fire, water, rock,… air. It’s air.’
‘Indeed. Paper and scissors are used to make paper airplanes so there’s your air.’
Which makes a weird kind of sense. Or no, wait, it doesn’t.
‘You don’t, in fact, need scissors to make paper airplanes.’
‘Oh, stop fussing about the details.’
