Pardon Me, Myth

Why do you hate your nose so much?

“That’s your opening line?”

This never goes well for me. Sometimes it seems like it will, but that’s only to set up a joke.

“Are you a lunatic?”

No.

“Are you the narrator of a loosely-continuitied semi-fictional universe that I’ve been roped into without my consent?”

No.

“You should buy my stuff.”

What are those things?

“Circles.”

Sure.

“And they’ve got Stealies.”

Nope.

“Close enough.”

I’ll give you that.

“You can put things on them.”

Absolutely, yeah.

“Yarmulkes.”

In a pinch, I guess.

“Table cloth for a family of fancy mice.”

That’s adorable. What’s on the menu?

“The smallest baby from the most recent litter.”

Less adorable.

“But efficient.”

No one ever accused mice of being impractical.

“Mice get shit done. Oh, here’s my boyfriend.”

We’re just getting right to that, huh?

“There’s a pattern to these things.”

Sure. Is he a member of the illustrious Fucks?

“No, he’s Mictlantecuhtli, the Aztec god of death.”

What?

I’M GOING TO YO-YO ON YOUR SOUL.

Oh, fuck this bit.

Look at my evil bow-tie.

No, I won’t.

Sometimes, Dead Is Better

predator rando

You look like an Irish Predator.

“Thank you.”

Some people wouldn’t have taken that as a compliment, and I salute you for doing so.

“I make a conscious choice to interpret all statements as compliments.”

Isn’t that a bit dangerous?

“Oh, that’s sweet. Thanks.”

If you were an ancient supercontinent, which one would you be?

“Gondwona, first choice. Rodinia, second choice.”

You’ve thought about this.

“My mother was a supercontinent.”

Sure. How much direct sunlight can you stand?

“Virtually none.”

Me neither. Let’s go to Makeout Peak. We can make out, and I can peek.

“That would be so great, but I’m in grieving. My boyfriend just died.”

Oh, that’s horrible. My condolences.

“You can give them to him. He’s right there.”

Huh?

“THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I’VE CAUGHT YOU SNAKING MY LADY!”

Captain Fuck?

“I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE PASSED OUT ON A HIGHWAY!”

This is just fucking dumb.

Not Quite Kosher

I like your entrepreneurial spirit, and ethnic hair.

“So many possible genetic backgrounds.”

No, you’re Jewish.

“Just barely, though.”

Oh? I’m a Reform Jew, too.

“Very low-effort denomination.”

Everything’s in English, there are no threats, women are treated equally: it hardly even qualifies as religion.

“I consider myself a Buddhist now.”

What do others consider you?

“Zoroastrian. I don’t know where they got that idea.”

Weird. Y’know, I’m cuddly but muscular.

“Really?”

No. The opposite. Bony, and I shriek when I’m touched.

“You’re a catch.”

Can we continue this conversation over food?

“Sure. I wanna eat tacos.”

Cool. Is there a truck or something?

“Truck?”

“SHE MEANT MY COCKMEAT, HOMBRE!”

I truly despise this bit.

Neon Dream

rachel rando

You look like my college roommate Rachel.

“That’s great.”

Are you my college roommate Rachel?

“Was she one of those five-year-old geniuses?”

No.

“Then, no.”

You’re very visible.

“I’m in no danger from hunters.”

What if they’re hunting man?

“Still no danger.”

I meant “man” in the humanity sense.

“Oh, then: yes, danger. I’ve never been in a Most Dangerous Game situation before.”

No one has been. Until they are.

“I feel I would survive that game. I’m fit, I have great cardiovascular stamina, and I’m not afraid to use my feminine wiles.”

Describe these wiles.

“See the dimple?”

Yup.

“Smile?”

Uh-huh.

“Check out the rack.”

Okay.

“Wiles, bitch.”

You are wily. Do you date?

“You?”

Yes.

“No.”

Ah.

“I have a boyfriWHO SHOULD NOT BE TALKING TO THOSE SKANKS!”

“BUT I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE TO GIVE, BABY!”

“THIS IS NOT HOW THE CAPTAIN RAISED YOU, TODD FUCK!”

I need to stop doing this bit.

Time Keeps On Dripping

“Skank!”

Huh?

“Rando!”

You having a stroke or making fun of my repetitiveness?

“Skanko rand!”

Sure.

“You ever go trawling for bunga bunga in Wal-Mart at 4 am? It’s easy, but it’s weird, man.”

You shouldn’t do that.

“Those chicks have problems.”

Yes.

“I’m rooting for ’em, though. They’re getting those kids back.”

Aw.

“Hey, Ass: why is Garcia wandering around?”

Isn’t he usually?

“Yeah, but he generally looks better. Skinner, younger. Looks like he did near the end. It’s fucked up.”

Like, the way he looked in ’93?

“Yeah, yeah, right. Just like that.”

Fuck.

“What did you do?”

I didn’t do anything. I’m a neutral observer.

“Sure. What did you do?”

I just opened the Chronogate a little tiny bit.

“You cut a glory hole into the time/space continuum and now 1993 has declared war on the present.”

Yeah.

“Leave me out of this one.”

I didn’t know it would spread.

“The past is like herpes, man: it tells you when it’s done with you.”

Great.

“Call Precarious. This sounds like his kinda bullshit.”

Good idea.

“Didn’t this place used to be about the Dead?”

I don’t read the archives.

“Good idea.”

Are You A Rando Or A Randon’t?

Hey, Bobby. Whatcha doing?

“Rando-posin’. Garcia-wearin’. The usual.”

Do randos ever stand out to you?

“Well, you know: I used to let ’em do stuff to me.”

But when they began doing stuff to you, then they ceased to be randos and became groupies. Or skank.”

“Groupies for me. Other guys got the skank.”

Sure.

“Randos love giving us drugs.”

Do you remember any of them?

“No, but I recall thinking what nice people they were.”

Aw.

“Wait. A couple of ’em tackled me. Are they still randos if they tackle you?”

Are you kidding? Tackling a Grateful Dead while screaming, “I LOVE YOU!” is the randiest of acts. The height of randiciousness. A rando can have no more rand than when he is tackling a Grateful Dead.

“Most of ’em were just over-excited. Road crew had to beat ’em up a little bit, though. Sets a precedent if you let that kinda thing slide.”

Sure.

Y’know, Bobby: you’ve never gotten into scarves, and I thank you for it.

“Um, okay.”

A Family Affair

Your chin is so pointy, and you have elephants on your torso, but only the top part.

“Bubbles.”

Yes, so many bubbles.

“No, that’s my name.”

Flemish?

“Angolan.”

Of course. What do you do?

“I say I’m an actress.”

Of course. Is your belly button the center of the universe?

“All loci are the center of the universe, so: yes.”

You pluralize so effortlessly.

“Thanks.”

Would you like to pet? Light-to-moderate, or pedal-to-the-metal: your choice.

“Yeah, okay.”

What?

“Let’s pet. We can french, maybe even sloppy second.”

Awesome.

“Lemme just tell my brothers where I’m going.”

Oh, I don’t like the sound of that.

“Kip! Henry! I found a beau!”

“YOU SAID WE GOT TO WATCH THIS TIME!”

“AND TRADE HANDS IN A FRATERNAL FASHION!”

I’m gonna regret asking this, but what’s your last name?

“WE ARE THE FUCKS!”

“YOU MAY KNOW OUR FATHER, THE CAPTAIN!”

Hard pass.

Bob Can’t Pretend A Rando Is A Long-Awaited Friend

Watch your dick, Bobby.

“Rando on the right or left?”

Right.

“Your right or my right?”

Stage right.

“Your stage right or my stage right?”

There’s only one stage right.

“Sure, but ‘Where’s the stage?’ is what I’m saying.”

Hatless.

“Ah. Yeah, he’s going for it.”

He’s got ideas.

“Maybe a quick honk.”

He looks nervous.

“Like he’s been thinking about what he’s going to do for a while.”

You need a Parish, Bobby. This fucker would have been in a ditch somewhere already.

“Yeah, probably.”

“Beardo’s got his hand on my butt.”

Leave this photo-op, Bobby!

“Yup, yup.”

This Is A Bust

Your clothes are impractical.

“But useful: someone’s paying me to wear them.”

Billy would love you.

“How dismissive and sexist of you. We’re dropped in this world with no weapons, and must make do with whatever parlor tricks we learn.”

True.

“Besides, anyone ever pay to look at you?”

Not once. Literally not ever.

“There you go. And I’ll have you know that I am a Deadhead.”

Really?

“Oh, are you going to give me the little quiz? Going to mansplain the Manful Dead, and all about being a Manthusiast?”

Stop doing that to words.

“You’re a judgemental churl. Appearances are not to be trusted.”

Okay, okay.

“Now buy me some balloons from that guy.”

Which guy?

nitrous cop

“DRUGS FOR SALE, KIDS!”

You should trust that guy’s appearance.

“He’s cool. He’s in costume.”

“SHE’S RIGHT. I’M OFFICER FUCK AND I LOVE HARRY MENDOZA!”

I’m out.

A Growing Concern

Look at those triceps.

“I’d be a boon to any gentleman farmer in need of a wife.”

What do you know of the land?

“That it speaks to me. The fertile patch sings, and the rocky mush grumbles.”

And the seasons? The sky?

“I know them, and they provide meaning. The rains, then the sun, and then the winter.”

The dirt?

“The black dirt?”

Yes.

“Live again.”

Once more.

“Live again!”

With feeling.

“BLACK DIRT LIVE AGAIN!”

Do you have a boyfriend?

“Right behind you.”

Dammit.

juggalo

God DAMN, what the fuck is that thing?

“WOOP WOOP, NINJA!”

We’re done.

“TELL CAPTAIN FUCK I’M LOOKING FOR HIM!”

No.
