Overheard

And so I happened to sit through a phone conversation yesterday, which I would probably coin as playful banter but otherwise totally suitable for a PG-audience. It was pretty hilarious too (if you heard it live). Of course, I can only guess what duh utter was on the other side:

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
Hello?

Mr X: ...

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
I'm cutting my nails.

Mr X: ...

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
A cat always needs to sharpen her claws in case an enemy attacks.

Mr X: ...

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
Duh? The dog.

Mr X: ...

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
Never mind. So, why did you call me?

Mr X: ...

Ms Oblivious(-to-the-Existence-of-another-human-being):
Never mind. Bye...
