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.

Life doesn't have to be like that though. I know life's not fair but... you kinda have do the best you can.

You do.

But sometimes to do the best you can, you have to step on a few backs. Just the way it is.

I know, trust me.

Ah, what a crazy word we live in, huh?

[Your good mood and stance completely takes him off guard. He has no idea how to deal with this.]

Yeah. It's pretty frickin' insane sometimes.

[Sorry Pokey, unless he's been provoked, Ken's a pretty easy going guy who likes kids and wants to keep them happy]

But the world is where we live, and it's our only world. We gotta make it the best we can for everyone.

That's really if you only have one world to go to, though.

Can't say world hopping is really that common back home.

Not sure it's common anywhere, honestly.

But even if it were, and there was a ton of other worlds to go to, you'd still have to make sure they were good for everyone that was there.

[People are important to him, so of course he'd see this angle of it.]

I guess.

[He really can't understand. He's pretty much spent his entire life under the idea that you either use people, or get used in return, and being in this place is the first time he's seen he might find people he can relate to.]

Other people are important you know? They all deserve a chance at life and happiness.

Of course you do. I didn't say that you didn't. I'm just saying that there should be a way for people to coexist with out killing each other all the time.

That'd require them to no longer be human.

People are naturally stupid and mean. Of course they're going to kill each other all the time.

No people aren't. Ok sure there are a few people that are, but as a whole we human's aren't that terrible. It's just that no one nice ends up in charge.

No, it's just that deep down all anyone really cares about is looking for themselves. Thing is, we're also social animals. So we try and find ways to justify being with others.

Thing is, it turns out the more people you have around you, the more you have to manipulate. And if you're not the one manipulating, then that means you're the one being manipulated.

It doesn't have to work like that! Man, you must have had something awful happen to you to be that jaded.

It doesn't really matter.

It does matter. Everyone has a right to happiness...the problem is when that right to happiness conflicts with someone else's. There has to be some sorta compromise in there somewhere.

That foolish.

You can't make everyone happy all the time. There's always going to be someone displeased with someone else's happiness.

I know that. I know that this isn't a perfect world and there's gonna be unhappiness...

Just gotta do your best.

Even then, life is going to find a way to kick you down.

It doesn't have to. Don't be such a self fulfilling prophesy.

I'm not.

I'm working at wrestling to stay on top.

The top is a lonely place. And then birds shit on you.
