The Conversational Thread… aka Random Conversations I’ve Heard or Participated in During the Last 48 Hours
From the TV’s Flight of the Conchords:
Brett: What’s Water Polo?
Jermaine: It’s Polo in the water
Brett: Do they use Seahorses?
Jermaine: No
At my friend Chuck’s B-day party:
Me: As terrified as we are of bears, imagine how terrifying a bear is to a fish. It would be like a giant hairy raptor claw coming out of the sky and picking you up.
Some guy: (insert quizzical silence here)
Me: Although I think I’d be more scared of a bear than a raptor.
Some guy: Why is that? What if the raptor is fucking smart like the ones from Jurassic Park?
Me: Bears are smarter than Raptors.
Some guy: How so?
Me: Bears can be trained to ride tricycles. As soon as they learn how to ride ATV’s we are all fucked.
Some guy: What is it that you say you do again?
Also at Chuck’s B-day party:
Chuck: Have you seen Survivor Man on the Discovery Channel?
Me: No, what’s it like?
Chuck: This guy goes to exotic locations, as his own film crew, and survives for a week without any prior supplies. Last one I saw he was in the desert. It’s an awesome show I think.
Me: You know which episode of that I would want to see?
Chuck: Nope
Me: The cold harsh void of outer space.
Chuck: That episode would end with a corpse cartwheeling through nothingness.
Me: Here’s some Tang and 4 days worth of Oxygen motherfucker….
Chuck: They wouldn’t let him take any Tang. That would be breaking the rules.

Funny you should mention bears–one of my coworkers got chased by one last week! He says he’ll never go camping again. Well, there must be some bear-free camping one can do…

Tang?! Brent, your knowledge of useless crap and…well, Tang…never cease to amaze me. Replace the Tang with some Jolt (remember that shit?) and then you’ll have an episode that I’d like to see.
Has anyone seen my Crystal Clear Pepsi? I sat it down in 1993 and haven’t been able to locate it since and ‘m a little parched.
