I saw an interview with Brian Eno ages back and remembered this rather strange method of asking questions, thought it may work for a thread game.

Ask a question and after it provide a number, an that is the number of syllables to answer it in.

For example:

What's your favourite film (in 7)?

It's The Third Man by Carrol Reed.

So to start with:

If you could change anything right now, what would it be (in six)?
