I think the "take the emotion out" part really resonates. The idea of avoiding people who artificially "raise the stakes" is pretty interesting too, it seems like you have a sound process for this.
It sounds like you might enjoy comedy theory as this is where I learned majority of what you're talking about. Specifically improv comedy.
- RangerScience 5y agoThank you, I've wanted to poke into comedy for awhile now! Didn't realize there was established theory, but that makes sense. Note that I do think "raising the stakes" is a valid explorative method - you can use it to make small details much more visible, for example - even it's not so valid as an argument. So it's not so much about avoiding people who do that, as much as it about zeroing out the impact of them doing that.
