I just had this conversation with another Flight Attendant on the airplane tonight. We are playing a movie called "Next" with Nicholas Cage in it. We played it after we played Pirates of the Caribbean III. So you might see what's coming next....

F/A: So what are we playing next?
Amanda: Next
F/A: Yeah, what are we playing?
Amanda: Next
F/A: That's what I'm asking!
Amanda: We are playing Next.
F/A: So you don't want to tell me??
Amanda: I am telling you, Next.
F/A: Okay, Whatever

I used to play a similar game with my sister. On long road trips we would guess the band playing on the radio:

Me: who sings this?
Sis: ummm, I don't know, give me a minute
Me: ok enough time, who is it?
Sis: I don't know
Me: Guess who
Sis: I told you I don't know
Me: Guess Who
Sis: Who?
Me: Guess Who
Sis: I don't know!!
Me: Really, Guess Who!!
Sis: all right already I give up! Who is it??
Me: THE Guess Who!!!
Sis: oh!
