What do people mean when they refer to a Detour as “Reckless/Chicken”, “Tortoise/Hare”, or “Salad/Dessert”?
As Miss Alli of TWOP explains it in the recap for TAR2: Episode 7: “Most Detours come in two forms — Reckless/Chicken and Tortoise/Hare. In the first kind, you can either do something scary [Reckless] or something very slow [Chicken] — hang gliding, bungee jumping, sandboarding, rock-climbing…these are all Reckless/Chicken Detours. In the second kind, you either do something conservative that you won’t get done quickly but almost can’t screw up [Tortoise], or something you might blow past in a hurry but might stumble on and really hose yourself [Hare].” In her TAR4: Episode 2 recap, Miss Alli described a third type of detour: “It’s sort of Salad/Dessert. Walking is a Salad; a gondola is Dessert.
