Carl’s Jr. Board Meeting

The boss flips over a whiteboard with the word “Piles” written on it.

BOSS: The future… is piles! People like piles! Big old piles. That’s what they want in a food. Sometimes they like bread, so let’s get some bread and then make a pile in the middle. You know, like, a big greasy burger, with some cheese piled in there and then like… um… turkey? like shaved smoked turkey? Is that weird? and then we’ll slop up some onions and some BBQ sauce? You know, get that pile real sloppy, right? And then um, cheese sauce? Like an Alfredo? or a wiz? Hollandaise? Is that crazy? That’s more cream based but you get the idea. And then um… um… a sloppy old messy glop of pureed tomatoes. Reeeeal salty tomatoes. And then can we do like, um… don’t interrupt me I got this. Carne asada? Am I saying that right, Jose? Is that racist of me to only ask you? Sorry. Everyone, am I pronouncing— OOH FUCK hot dogs! Let’s slice up three hotdogs down the middle and lay them on the top there and then some runny old sauerkraut and um… pickles and fuckin’ ketchup and mustard and we’ll shoot it with a mayo gun. And we’ll call it: The Fat Fuckin’ Carl!

EVERYONE: YES!!!!!!!!!!

BOSS: And then we’ll fuck it!

EVERYONE: Huh?

BOSS: You know, or just, sell it to people so they can eat it…

He backs away slowly towards the window and jumps out, to his death.

Paul McCartney Vs. Time

  • TIME: Paul, you are old.
  • PAUL: No, I'm not!
  • TIME: Seriously, you have been alive for a really long time. Just be old, it's okay.
  • PAUL: NO! I'm awesome! Sometimes I look like a lady but I still have semi-convincingly dark hair and I can sing! And young women will have sex with me because I have 9 billion dollars.

  • PAUL: Nope! Running anyway! And jumping!
  • TIME: Oh, did you make a deal with the devil?

The World Series Of Conversational Subtlety

ANNOUNCER: Hello sports fans, we’re here with five time WSOCS Champion Beth Samuels, who has been EFFORTLESSLY telling men at bars she has a boyfriend without making it seem like an overt brush off! Beth, tell us, how DO you do it?

BETH: Well, first of all thank you. My technique is simple. I wait for the guy to mention an activity that my boyfriend and I participate in as well. For example, watching “The Wire” on DVD, hiking, or seeking out quality Vietnamese food—

ANNOUNCER: Seems like a standard approach—

BETH: Let me finish! I first mention that I ALSO participate in that activity, and start talking about my involvement with it, and only after the conversation is off to a good start about our shared enthusiasm for said activity, will i drop in a b-bomb.

ANNOUNCER: B-bomb?

BETH: That’s what I call slipping in the word ‘boyfriend’. For example: “I’m halfway through season 4. My boyfriend finished it before me, so I’ve gotta make sure he doesn’t spoil anything for me. What season are you on?”

ANNOUNCER: Wow. Flawless execution as always. Thank you so much for speaking to me today, Beth.

BETH: You’re welcome! My boyfriend also likes speaking.

Fin.
