So operation Peter Gabriel was a huge success. It turned talking to those dullards to be at least somewhat interesting. They didn't catch on of course, they just thought I was a little weird.
"So, puppy, where are you from?"
"The place, where I come from, is a small town."
"....ok..."
"They think so small. They use small words."
"Puppy, can you make yourself presenter."
"I'll be your sledgehammer. Anything you need."
"Ah, man puppy. I dropped my pen, can you help?"
"Don't give up. Cause you have friends."
It made it at least bearable.
