“Honeeey, where’s my shirt?”
‘What shirt?”
‘The shirt with all the skulls on it!”
‘At the cleaners.”
‘The cleaners!!”
‘Yeah, the cleaners.”
‘Well what am I supposed to wear to the game?!”
‘Wear your blue shirt.”
‘My blue shirt!”
‘Yeah, the blue shirt, it looks nice.”
‘But there’s no skulls on the blue shirt!”
‘It looks nice, wear it.”
(Pause) “Honeeey?”
‘Yeah?”
‘Where’s the felt pen?”
