When I was in middle school, several of my friends were creative writers and one of our favorite games was called “What if?” One of us would throw out a situation that began with “What would you do if,” and the person on the other end of the question had to respond to the scenario in question immediately and realistically.
“What would you do if the gym caught fire and the doors were locked?” (We had just learned about the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire in history class.)
