Flipped To Sit On Minds
Mister Pertillar?
Are you as fantastic as those rumors,
I 'use' to hear you to be?
'Well...
Yes,
Of course!
Why?
Do you believe I should updat them?
Since these days...
Hardly anyone says 'fantastic' anymore.
You have any suggestions?
I've already used 'dope', 'sick'...
And 'flipped to sit on minds'.'
I haven't heard that one before.
'You're kidding.
I started out with that one.
I'll give you twenty dollars.
Go to the nearest bustop.
Use your cellphone.
Pretend you're talking to someone...
And say,
'Who?
Who is FLIPPED TO SIT ON MINDS?
You're kidding?
Lawrence who?
Pertillar?
Keep repeating it,
Until you are satisified...
You have annoyed everyone within listening distance.
That should do it.
I wondered why I hadn't gotten any rolling of the eyes,
Of late.
My friend,
You are a blessing in disguise! '
