worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/questions/25599/… Is this idea generation?

@Green Reading the question makes me say yes, while TimB's answer seems to avoid that.

Green

There's a ton of different answers for that and not one any better than the others.

Also, Hi. It's been a quiet weekend.

@Green Hi! How was yours?

Green

Watched Rambo: First Blood last night. It's a surprisingly good movie though I started watching the second one and lost interest in the first 10 minutes.

How are your essay going?

HDE 226868

@Green Pretty much done. I'll do a final pass tomorrow, but I finished most of them this past Monday.

(And I'm making veggie sushi tonight for my girlfriend. I'm really looking forward to it.)

I had a XC meet yesterday, which was pretty cool. It was a two miles course for everyone, instead of the normal 5k for non-freshman. It was also a class meet, so you raced only with people in your grade. The upshot of all this is that I raced at 12:00, when the course was muddy and torn up, and I was running in the largest and fastest race, alongside 279 other people, with only one other teammate.

Green

Did you win?

HDE 226868

@Green Haha. No, I got 55th out of 280 - which is a good finish; top 20%. I ran a 10:58, which shows you how fast a senior boys' race is. The top time was around 9:30-ish.

Green

Dang! I'm happy if I can run a mile in 15 minutes. (I'm very very very out of shape.)

Congratulations!

@Green Thanks. Our team is looking really good this year.

Q: Can I ask a question based on a specific creature of my world?

I know that questions that are based on "Actions of individual characters, rather than elements of the world they inhabit" are off topic, but if I had created a specific creature, would it not count as asking about a species? I'm planning to ask a series of questions based on the aforementioned ...
