Done in 55 minutes? I had to redo one because I realized it was a copy. I also feel like I went a little too hard on the… surrealism(?) of my answers? I kind of thought to many answers of the form “Hide it in a volcano, hide it in the ocean, hide it in the marianas trench, hide it in a whale’s body” seemed too same-y, but now that seems silly to me.
That was fun.
