One day a handsome young stranger came to a tiny sleepy village in the countryside. He went around asking for food for his empty cooking pot but was thoroughly rebuffed by every villager. But this stranger was crafty and so he hatched a scheme. He went to the river and filled his pot up with water and when it boiled dropped in some stones. After 30 minutes one of the villagers got curious and came up and asked him:

"What are you doing there?"

"Why I'm making stone soup" The clever stranger replied.

"Stone soup? You're just boiling a rock?"

"It's the most delicious flavor in the world. I guarantee it. It just needs a little bit of carrots to complete the flavor." The stranger said smacking his lips.

"i really don't think rocks impart that much flavor. It doesn't seem healthy either. I think I saw some lichen on them."

"Have you ever had it before though?" The stranger kissed his fingers like an italian chef. "Mwah! Deee-lishous! Just a little bit of carrots that's all I need to just make the flavor pop!"

"You seem really intent on getting some carrots. If its so delicious can't you do without them?"

"The carrots just bring out the full bodiedness of the stones. You can't have stone soup without carrots. Say I don't suppose YOU would have any carrots would you? I'd share some of my stone soup with you!"

"I'm good thanks. I can boil those at home without lichen-crusted rocks."

The villager then went away and told the other villagers about what he was doing and they laughed to themselves. By now it had been an hour and they were still there watching him. The stranger didn't want them to think he was odd so he took the boiled water with some lichen floating in it and ate it loudly proclaiming the best thing he ever tasted. The villagers didn't seem to believe him. The next day the stranger went to another town.

what if a stone soup but the soup was weed

stoned soup

One time I dropped a gram of concentrate into a boiling pot of ramen noodles. I assumed it wouldn’t do anything due to being either under- or over-cooked. An hour later I couldn’t walk. A day later, I still couldn’t walk. A++, errybody should eat stoned soup.

A jester had a bag of jewels he brought to the communal soup pot, and he wowed the villagers with his fancy jewels. Oh how they sparkled! Every time the jester threw a jewel into the soup, he promised the villagers that they could have the jewels, if only they could reach them at the bottom; with each bowl, the jester threw in another jewel. He had to eat before he would stop casting them in. The jester ate and ate as the villagers waited. Finally, the pot of soup was almost gone, and before anyone knew it, the jester had disappeared. The villagers, as they hungrily ate the last of the soup, realized that... the jewels at the bottom were made of glass! (It's an economic allegory.)

There’s a webtiles version with sprites and stuff if your troubles are just with the ASCII version. Also there’s a crawl irc with bots you can query for info. But that’s not what this thread is about!!

it's great if you can get into it, although it took me hours to figure out what was going on (and that was years ago. and i'm kind of impatient and dumb.) i would not call it accessible, except in the way that certain people find things like that accessible.

stone soup isn't that much of a stretch. in ye-olde times people would boil water by heating up a stone and putting it into a pot of water. so adding a "stone" to the soup isn't a lazy handout, this person is offering to cook the soup for everyone else. it is a fair trade!

Later the jester died in agony as he had eaten several broken shards of glass.
