What did you say?

We all communicate differently - especially among the cast of my many zany characters.

On occasion, Pisser likes to continue a conversation 10 minutes, 20 minutes, even hours after said conversation is over. It all began during our trip to our hockey game. Krazy Karl asked Pisser to drive us because KK is taking painkillers. So we go play our game. (It's a spectacular game by the way. It has been a long long time since we have been the butt kickers instead of being the butt kickees.) On the trip home, we spend many a minute recounting all the glorious highlights. Finally we are done and silence fills the car. Then, out of the blue, Pisser says "Karl, what's wrong with you?" KK ponders the few possible answers to this odd question. Finally KK decides Pisser is trying to make a joke so KK takes the straight man approach and replies "I don't know Pisser, what's wrong with me?" This just confuses Pisser as his real question included the subtext, 'Why are you taking painkillers?' That's where I step in. As the resident interpreter I am often called in to solve breakdowns in communication.

Bunny, on the other hand, takes everything extremely literally. (Before we make fun of her, we do want to thank her for having dinner and a movie night on Saturday night as our usual Lan Gaming was not scheduled to take place, and we want to thank her for the funniest moment of the night.) During dinner we were discussing the various whereabouts of our missing friends. The Graduate never joins us for dinner, he's with his wife and kids. Superstar was going out to dinner and a movie with her current Robert. Krazy Karl was nowhere to be found. And of course Hyperbole (pronounced HY-per-bowl-ee, trust me it's funnier this way) was off in Seattle. Then there's BadKitty.
The Chad wondered, "Where's BadKitty?"
"She's out tutoring," replied Bunny.
"Oh? What is she tutoring?" asked The Chad.
Bunny pauses, then she says, "A person."
"I asked for that, didn't I?" answered The Chad.
At which point we all had a good laugh.

Ahh, just another day in the neighborhood.
