If someone were in an empty desert and that individual began to tell a story, would it really count as a story being told if there was no one to listen to it? I don't believe it to be so. A story told to an audience of no one is not a story at all, but merely a monologue. A proverbial dictated session of self molestation, and with that I will now segue into something about homosexuals and transgendered folk.
