So you're all set up here but got no plans to post with me. Nope, you gotta spend all your time on Miss Creeper Lady and bizarro future me, who I'm trying real hard to not think much about.

Well, it ain't my fault if you got poor taste. Go root for the Mets.

I mean, you were being smart, pointing out this was a post.

We go down that road, we're talking dots and crosses, whole lotta nothing. No place for a conversation to drive.

[candidly]

Alright, so let's find a better place to steer the conversation.

Why do you hate the Mets so much?

[deadthenred]

I don't hate the Mets, I hate the Giants.

Mets ain't worth hating.

[candidly]

I will never understand sports fans.

[deadthenred]

I like the Dodgers, what's there to understand?

[candidly]

I dunno, I just don't get the whole sports thing. It's kind of boring to just sit there and watch people running around.

[deadthenred]

You don't got patience or an appreciation of skill, I get it.

[candidly]

Right. Because running from point A to point B takes a lot of skill.

[deadthenred]

Why don't you go out for the Yanks, then, since it doesn't take much and they pay real well?

[candidly]

Well, let's see... I'm pretty sure Peter would disown me if I did. That would mean having to go on TV and I really don't want to be famous ever. Physically speaking, I don't have the right stuff between my legs. Plus, I'm pretty sure you've gotta be eighteen to play professionally.

And, oh, yeah. I don't like sports.

[deadthenred]

Or, you actually gotta practice and you'd never make the team.

S'about more than just running. It's knowing when you gotta run, when you gotta sacrifice, when you need to steal.

[candidly]

You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em?

[deadthenred]

And you gotta be able to hit the ball, too.

[candidly]

Okay, someday I'm making you a mix CD of like... songs you need to know if you're going to survive in the 21st century. The Gambler is going to be one of them.

[deadthenred]

I survive in the 21st century just fine, thankyouverymuch.

[candidly]

So that's a no on ever getting to teach you the Macarena?

[deadthenred]

If I haven't heard of it yet, it's probably not important.

[candidly]

All my dreams of seeing you dance like a weirdo someday... dashed. Jerk.

[deadthenred]

I'm a terrific dancer, I'll have you know.

[candidly]

Yeah, sure. I'll believe it when I see it.

[deadthenred]

Yeah, yeah, you probably don't even know how.

[candidly]

I can do the Cha Cha Slide.

[deadthenred]

That a real dance or is it something you made up just now?

[candidly]

It's a real dance. I'm not gonna lie about knowing a real dance. Somebody would end up calling my bluff sooner or later, and that would suck.

[deadthenred]

Are you trying to call my bluff?
