Tickle
I wouldn’t be caught dead impersonating a cadaver. It makes me wonder though, how long I’d have to be sorry. By the way, which side of gravity are you on? Terrific. I hear that’s no longer the leading cause of death, at least among parachutists. I guess I’m fundamentally a problem solver, although some people seem to think that’s just a smokescreen for my habit of fighting fire with arson. For dinner tonight, I’m going to be currying favor and binge-watching robot TV so that I can keep up with the Joneses. I don’t know about you, but I’m sick and tired of living paycheck-to-paycheck. It’s like a camera taking a picture of a camera. Say, did you know that rats laugh when you tickle them? Yeah, they have a great sense of humor, too. Here, grab this big grey one. See for yourself.
