Punished for giving one-word answers instead of complete sentences.
“Are you at least 18 years old?”
I do most emphatically and unequivocally declare unto thee that indeed, mine age doth far surpass the venerable milestone of eighteen years, that sacred threshold which doth mark the passage from youth unto the full flowering of adulthood in the eyes of law and custom.
My head voice went from "American Midwestern nonaccent" to "southern mayor in 1850" to "southern pastor giving a sermon in 1850"
Well done.
If you want complete sentences, you don't ask closed ended questions
The answers don't need more than a one word answer. Except that last one, which shouldn't have been in the script.
How the hell do I answer "Are you over the age of 18?" In a complete sentence that gives more information than just "Yes"
If I'm being honest, I was born in the year of our Lord 2005 to the most amazingly loving, caring, and down-to-earth parents a child could ever ask for. At the tender age of 18, I lived life to its fullest, moved out from my parents' house, and then a year later I turned 19 for the first and only time ever. That was a turning point in my life, after which I was and forever would be over the age of 18. So yes, emphatically yes, I am indeed over the age of 18.
How exactly do you give a complete sentence to a yes or no question?
