“That there’s a damn shame, Bill. Yeah, no, sorry, I didn’t see anything. I was visiting my sister’s tree over on Morgan. I’ll ask around and let you know if I hear something, though. Geez, what a world, am I right? Anyway, your homeowners policy should cover it, no?”

I unabashedly love that Michael Douglas married Catherine Zeta-Jones and all the Hollywood rags were like “this man NEEDS to be REVERED as a SEX ICON” and afterwards he chose his every subsequent role to respond “I am a WASHED UP POTHEAD ENGLISH TEACHER who likes to EAT SOUP on PARK BENCHES”

“I think you look adorable.”
“I won’t be made a fool, Steve.”

all of my retirement hopes now rest entirely with my partial collection of commemorative state quarters, a complete set of encyclopedias from 1974, some slap bracelets, a dozen slightly scratched k-tel records, and my final unused gwyneth paltrow vagina candle

“Who is it, Charlie?”

“It’s Tim from next door. He wants us to know that our bird feeder’s empty.”

there's a little chain you can pull at the top of mount everest to switch the direction of the earth's rotation. a small nepalese boy just went up there to set us clockwise for the winter. it is considered a great honour to put the world into exhaust mode.

Ants have an exoskeleton. So an ant skeleton just looks like an ant. This takes half the fun out of Ant Halloween.

"Pssst."
"Shhh!"
"Whatcha doing?"
"Waiting."
"For what?"
"A cheetah."
"I hear those are beautiful."
"They sure are, fast too, now hush."
"Can I wait with you?"
"Only if you're quiet."
