“Don’t you want to test it first?”
“Everybody does that. Where’s the excitement then?”
“Maybe in the fact you know the thing works?”
“Or maybe we wait till the crowd is here and see if it explodes!”
“Don’t you want to test it first?”
“Everybody does that. Where’s the excitement then?”
“Maybe in the fact you know the thing works?”
“Or maybe we wait till the crowd is here and see if it explodes!”
“Looking for a lift, my kind driver”
“Yes, that’s my job. Hence why I’m here with my car.”
“F me. I was hoping for more of an emotional pick me up.”
“That can be arranged. Get in and I’ll take you on a happy journey. Let me tell you about my cats…”
“Don’t ask her her age. That would be so rude!”
“As if. This is a new age, old man. Age is just a number now.”
“That’s a bunch of bull, and you know it. Ask it and be relegated to the dustbin of relationship history.”
“Everything you say tells the universe how old you are. What was it like to ride a triceratops?”
“Don’t worry. You’ll get to see for yourself when she slaps you so hard she sends you back in time.”
“Linguistically speaking, your lexicon is quite lacking in panache.”
“And what did ya just tell me?”
“Nothing that an educated scholar would not comprehend.”
“Gonna have to ask again, what did you just speak at me?”
“Until you address me in a formal and proper manner, I will assume you are a curmudgeon.”
“Address? I don’t know where you live?”
“Gratuitous snark will not be tolerated, nor will it be condoned, unless you do not jest, if so that is mortifying”
“Everything you say needs to be wrapped up in the pages of a dictionary and fed to your pie hole you asshat!”
Begin by picking up your fruit
As you handle it, feel its heft
Notice its shape and girth
And think about how good it will be
Now, are you ready for what comes next?
All you do is buy it and eat it. Wait, what did you think I was going to say?
“How do you feel today, Bob?”
“As good as you can with your sinuses being home to a pack of pachyderms”
“Yuck! I hate allergies as well.”
“Bonkers, it’s absolutely bonkers I say.”
“Everything is in turmoil?”
“Double turmoil, with a cherry on top and a fireball whiskey chaser!”
“Let’s calm down for a moment. What happened?”
“All I can say is it involves a fish, a poleaxe, and two large bottles of ammonia.”
“Maybe it’s best if I don’t know. I don’t want to go to jail!”
“You know you could go to bed earlier?”
“And do what? Sleep? I don’t have the time.”
“With how often you your mouth’s open and stretching? You’d have more time than you think”
“Nah. All that’s because you bore me.”
“Look, I know I have a bunch of sins, so sue me!”
“Everyone sins. Why are yours so different?”
“No one I know puts dill pickles on pizza like I do.”
“That’s a damnable offense. Repent you heathen, or enjoy hell!”
“Pretty hard to swallow what you are trying to feed me.”
“I know, but it’s good for you, so please?”
“Leave me alone. I don’t wanna.”
“Look, I even put it in this smoothie.”
“So now you think I’m a dog?”
