Betty Blue & Edna
Betty: “Dennis, the Vizsla of Destruction (huh! Like four legs are capable of doing anything but!) has tagged us. Finally, we have an opportunity to air our concerns. Finally, we can take the opportunity to let you know, we will prevail….finally…ooop, wait, I’ve just got to lay this egg. I’ll be back. Edna, you take over.”
Edna: “Thanks, Betty!…has she gone? OK, so Betty has some issues, but really, we’re fine, she’s always had a bee in her bonnet about world domination. I’ll just answer the questions Dennis sent us, and we can all just tell Betty that I said the stuff, blah, blah, buCACK! OK?
Ten years ago, I was: Still in my previous incarnation as a 35 year old advertising executive – I know, ironic right?

Having lunch while reading this post. I think I liked “Where I’ve lived” the best, but the whole thing had me choking on my chicken drumstick with chuckles!
No, wait! I… Shoot. Already clicked “Submit comment”. Maybe I could change my name.
Dennis, I think you’re right. They seem to whisper alot when my back is turned, and their BUCK BUCACK seems to be some kind of code….
Ah, see, choking on your *chicken* drumstick…their dastardly plan has started already! They’re insidious, I tell you.
