4. It's a contest

10. Big difference
Sherlock Holmes is fictional, this tries to appear as a real thing.

12. Oh fer fuck's sake
There are murder mystery cruises that operate the same way, and murder mystery house adventure games.

Don't be a stick-in-the-mud.

20. Here is an easier game. Everyone send me a $2 check
and I'll post your names on a blog, maybe everyonesendmetwodollars.com or something like that
You can be the first in your neighborhood to be listed. I'll pick 1 person to Win the Grand Prize of a Trip to Applebees!

21. Wow! This is being sponsored by
Applebees? Making a mockery of those families who actually do have missing adults and children.

We are indeed a sick, sick society.
