In Which Boredom Reigns Supreme

[ceasetoexist]

You know, I tried watching the television today, only to remember just how bad it sucked. Seriously, there's nothing but happy crap on and, I'll tell you, not too interested in that. I'd have gone to the library, but I pretty much read most of the stuff they have in the kids section and there's pretty much little to nothing in any of the other sections friggin' worth anything.

So I was thinking: a lot of you people probably came from some interesting places, or did some interesting things, or know some interesting people, or yada-yada-yada. Basically, I'll cut to the chase: tell me about the places your from or the people you know, cause I'm bored as can be and I'll pretty much take anything as a way to entertain myself. You want a story in return? Fine, I can do that; there's a lot of crazy junk I've seen.

But c'mon. Entertain me. I'm bored here.

Hey, you're the crazy doctor or nurse or whatever I talked to a bit on the phone during the Soviet schtick, right? 

There's something I want to ask you.

Hey. Do you know which channel Terrance and Phillip is on?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Never heard of it. If its from where you're from, doubt its on.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Where I'm from? You mean Colorado? I thought that show was viewed internationally, though.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

....

How long have you been here kid? More accurately, how long has it been since you woke up?

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Today? Err.. I mean one. No, wait. It's not midnight yet so half of today.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

And you haven't figured out you're no longer at your actual house yet? Or even the same town you're probably from?

Or the same dimension?

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Oh, my God. It's also a different dimension? I didn't think it went that far!

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it is. Try walking outside the city border. Guess what?

It loops around. Have fun with that kid. You ain't getting out. None of us are.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

We can't get out? ..Is there a Taco Bell at least?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

A what?

[retypes.livejournal.com]

[ he doesn't like the sound of this ]

Dude, i-it's an American-Mexican fast food restaurant, duh!

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Alright. Let me explain some things to you.

Thing One: you are in another dimension, idiot. This means several things. First, that there are other people from other dimensions. Including me. Hi. You're talking to someone you otherwise wouldn't have met. Isn't that swell? It also implies a lot of crap from YOUR home plane won't be here, like restaurants.

Thing Two: this place is modeled after the 1950s. Did fast food even really exist back then?

Thing Three: You act like I'm stupid again, I find you and kick your teeth in, got it?

[retypes.livejournal.com]

[ does that mean no Taco Bell? man, he just died a little inside. ]

I don't remember acting like you were stupid.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

"Duh" implies you thought I was stupid for not knowing whatever friggin' Taco Bell is.

What's the deal, anyway? You could probably just buy stuff to make a taco.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

It does? [ I learned something today. Apparently the word "duh" offends people. Try not to use it that often. ] Sorry about that, dude.

Well, it's.. not the same? I mean, you've never tried it so you wouldn't know.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

What do you think "duh" meant? It's a retort, at least to a point.

[Probably not in this case, but he doesn't give a shit. Asshole may have been making fun of him anyway.]

Okay, how is it different then? I mean, home-made junk is usually going to be better than processed crap. Not that I mind fast food THAT much.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Well, maybe a filler. It's also a rock band if you Wiki and IMBd it.

[ it's not that. taco bell is v. serious to him ]

Well, some fast food places only have certain stocks that only they can make. Like how McDonald's has McNuggets and Sonic has Coneys and Burger King has those retarded crowns. Some things just can't be homemade.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

If I did what now?

Yeah, okay, whatever. But the thing is that even when they give their items names, they're still pretty much the same damn thing. THe names are a gimmick to try and make themselves look better.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Huh.. I guess you don't have internet either. Nevermind.

That is true.. But I don't really know how to make tacos myself, though. You think the not parents can cook things I'll tell them to?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Well, I had the internet back at home. It was pretty cool, if it didn't take so long to load and didn't cut off use of the phone when you used it.

[Kid's from 1995, Clyde; even though he's a time traveler, he doesn't know ALL about your high-tech shit, though he's interested.]

...Huh. I dunno. Never really tried it, but maybe!

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Wow, really? Wait.. did you have dial up? Also, do you have a Facebook? [ not that he needs more friends noooo ]

[ 1995? Man, that's so long ago. Is he really interested? That almost sounds like a compliment. ]

If all we have to do is pretend like we're their kids then we oughta get what we want in no time! My not dad told me if I cleaned my room I could get ice cream.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I...guess?

The hell's a Facebook?

Pfft. They're lying. That's what all parents do. They tell you they're going to give you something if you do it, then they don't deliver jack.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

It's.. a blog? I guess that's what it called. It's a site where you keep in touch with your friends from school and stuff.

Wait, so.. no ice cream?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Blog? [Still too new for him Clyde]

Oh. Well...no. I don't have one.

I dunno. I mean, it's worth a shot but don't cry like a little itty-bitty baby when you don't get crap.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Oh.

I haven't gotten my ice cream yet.. [ s-sniffle ] So I cleaned my not room for nothing, then?
