"How was you your Thanksgiving?"
"Okay. I took my grandma to Knott's Berry Farm."
"What's that?"
"It's like a ghetto Disneyland. But they have good roller coasters. Grandma loves the roller coasters."
"Really?"
"Oh, you can't get her off those things. And since she has a cane, we got to go straight to the front of the lines. Grandma even bought pictures of us on the roller coasters."
"Aren't those expensive?"
"No, only about sixteen dollars a pop. She says she wants us to remember how she really was after she dies."
"Did Dan go on the roller coasters?"
"Are you kidding me? He won't even ride a bike."

"Do you play with infants when drunk?"
"No. But you don't really play with infants. I mean, there's peek-a-boo, and you can throw them up in the air, but that's about all. I can barely do that sober."

"Hey, John. Is that a scarf?"
"No, sweater."
"Weren't you wearing a scarf last week?"
"Yeah, John's been dressing up for fall, ain't that right, John?"
"Well, you know."
"Your wife dressing you? I mean, a scarf?"
"Hey, it's winter. It's cold out there."
"It's never so cold that you have to wear a scarf. I mean, a scarf?"
"Quit messing with John. You're just jealous because he knows how to dress for a season, and you bozos can't even figure out how to put on a pair of socks."

"What's that?"
"Gum. Want some?"
"What is it, Trident? No thanks. It has xylitol in it, and for some reason, every time I have xylitol, I get a retching case of diarrhea. I can handle most sugar substitutes, but give me xylitol, and I'm off to the moon."
