INTRO
Oh hi,
Wow, I can’t believe they are paying us to just file into this room and not talk for an indeterminate amount of time.. I wonder if we have assigned seats..probably not…this doesn’t seem like that kind of place. ugh, I don’t like the looks of this lady in front of me…she looks like a talker..
Oh…what’s going on over there…a guy tied up to a hospital bed. Hey, is that Henry Winkler, no…uhhh.. Howard Hesseman…I don’t know…all these white guys look the same to me. No wait…it’s that guy from the food court at the saddest mall in Canada with those escalators that go nowhere. Yeeeeah, I’m pretty sure that is the guy. Also, like 90% positive I saw him steal some of my fries when I went to get a napkins. That bastard….goood…they got him strapped to a bed… serves him right! Steal my fries…I wonder if I can get a punch in as we walk by.
Ok…well I guess we’re sitting here then. I’ll punch ya later fry guy. Oh man…he’s really squirming around up there. Probably has the poops from all that stolen food. Speaking of poops…I really should have taken care of some butt business before agreeing to sit with total strangers for an indeterminate amount of time. Oh man. I got to do something to take my mind off of this explosive pain in my posterior.
Wow, it’s really quiet in here. You can hear all the bodily processes. Geez lady…that gum you are chewing is going to heaven, because you are sure enough chewing the hell out of it. Ok, I don’t know if handle this. Oh! I know…maybe if I concentrate really hard If I can blow this ladies head up with my thoughts…. and then we can all leave and I’ll still get paid and go take that poop!
Grunt..oooh…eeewww…eeee…urrp…phtttlll… Uh oh…Do you think they heard that? Oh yeah…they totally heard that…even poor man’s Henry Winkler stopped writhing about. aaaaand now I’m being escorted out. But we are going by the fry thief…shit missed. Avenge me Randy!
