Dr. J's Bad Day
|
J: Hello, H?
H: Hello, who, may I ask, is calling? J: It's me, J, remember, we went to school together. H: Oh. J: No, J. H: Can you hold on a minute? G: Hello? H: You'll never guess who's on the other line. G: Who? H: It's J! G: Gee! H: No, J. G: No, I was saying... hey, why don't we have real names? Like John - no, that name's not modern, from now on call me... Ahl-Jafian, yeah! H: Well, I want a name also... Mechalochor! J: Hey, where are you, H? H: Hold on a minute, gotta check the other line. J: Hello? H: Mechalochor here. J: Who? H: Mechalochor. J: Look, is H there? H: Yeah, G and I are going to legally change our names, and I'm going to be Mechalochor. J: Why would you want to do that? H: Face it, our names suck, we are wanted men, now do you want your tombstone to say, "Here lies J, we knew nothing else about him" or, "Here lies Joe - then scourge of the cosmos (please dance on this grave)"? J: I see your point. Hang on a minute. Hey, S, are you there? S: Yeah, who is this? J: Just me, J. Hey, the guys and I are going to change our names. S: Legally? J: Yeah. S: Then you are going to go into a colony, go to the government building and say, "Hey, I'm Doctor J, I've come to change my name, and in chase you were wondering, yes, I am the one who built the Gundams." No, you can't do that, J. I'm sorry. J: *sniffle* Well, okay then! I have *sob* someone on the other line. Hey, H! H: Yes... are you crying? J: *sob* No! H: You better stop, you might rust your eyes shut! (laughs) J: I-- *whine* I-- *sob* I can't believe you guys! (hangs up) H: Hey G, you weren't really gonna change your name, were you? G: No, but I hear O did. H: Really, what to? G: K. H: You've got to be kidding. G: 'struth. H: O-kay, talk later. G: Ciao! H: Hey, O? K: The name is K now, thank you. H: I just wanted to check, bye. (hangs up) K: I feel so alone...
