The other day I see this guy crossing the street in front of my store. Dressed nice. Slicked back hair. And the biggest, meanest scowl you've ever seen on anyone ever.
He kinda looked like Ted Cassidy playing Injun Joe. But meaner. And scowlier.
His face was red. Snarled mouth. This guy was angry!
And then I noticed what was clutched in his arm.
It was a game of Trivial Pursuit.
I don't wanna play with this guy. Ever.
'It's freakin' Pete Best, A-hole!'
' It's mother-effin' Guam!'
'Calvin goddamn Coolidge!!'
' WHAT A STUPID QUESTION!!! IT'S SAM THE BUTCHER!!'
'The female kangaroo!! JERK!'
Actually....maybe I do wanna play with this guy. Could be fun.
PS
(the correct answer would be Wally Pipp )
He was probably just disappointed because someone told him Trivial Pursuit involves pies...and then he found out what that really meant.
ReplyDeleteOh, go on. Rub it in some MORE. I could have made millions and I'm just an answer in a trivia game. Damn Ringo. DAMN him.
ReplyDeleteI am an answer to a Trivial Pursuit question. I want you to know that this does not make me trivial. I am a ghost, I am small, but I am NOT trivial.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he just scowled once when he was a little boy and, as his mother warned, "his face froze like that."
ReplyDeleteNot tonight, dear, I have a headache.
ReplyDeleteWas there a strong wind at the time? Maybe he was having trouble walking against it? That's always happening to me.
ReplyDelete'The female kangaroo!! JERK!'
ReplyDeleteMy Mom's not a jerk!
Did someone say "answers in a trivia game?"
