Drawn to Humanity

Drawn to Humanity
(An office. Bill approaches his supervisor.)

Bill: Why did you send for me? Are the rumors true? Am I being let go?

Supervisor: Let go? We can't afford to lose a valuable employee like you, Bill! No, you're being transferred to the Human Resources Department.

Bill: What a relief!

Supervisor: You're to report to them immediately.

Bill: I'll go straight there. (He heads out and down a corridor and through a door marked HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT.) Hi! I'm Bill. I'm transferring in.

Receptionist: (Rising to shake his hand) Welcome to Human Resources, Bill. Won't you come with me into the back?

Bill: (Following her) Great. I always wondered what goes on back here. (She leads him to a wall of drawers, and opens an empty one.)

Receptionist: (Smiling) In you go!

The Netherwork: Pure Mishap

The Netherwork: Pure Mishap Since I heard the name 'Stuie' as a possible putdown from a passerby today, I'm going to repeat that Seth MacFarlane got punched out in prison. Now let's go after his supporters. I don't know if he took this one. (A network boardroom. A meeting has just concluded when one of the executives is delayed by the chairman.) Chairman: I hear you have an exotic new post production coordinator. Executive: Yes, from Haiti. Chairman: We'll be having a little informal gathering in the rotunda later. Could you ask her join us? Executive: Certainly. Can I come? Chairman: No. (The rotunda. From a torchlit alter, standing before a boiling cauldron, a colourfully costumed priestess addresses a congregation of robed and hooded executives and staff.) Priestess: With the power of the buh-joo , all can be yours. The spirit fathers know of the one who resists you. (With her arms outstretched to the ceiling, she says a f...

Star Alight, Star Bright (Or 2018-YouTube-Stars' Stolen Popularity)

Image
Star Alight, Star Bright I've amended the title of this page to remind us of the crime of views stealing that was committed against its videos, documented in my Record of Assaults . So who's been protesting my last YouTube post above? Police? No? Just people? Who do you think they might be? And what are they saying in protest? Off? That's it? They want to topple that nice, coherent argument I presented to you, out of respect for your intelligence, with a one-word, push-button command? Who the hell do they think they are? If anyone's violating my image right now, I want them rounded up and incarcerated. I should have added about my family that my two siblings closest in age, Bernard (older) and Roger (younger) cannot be trusted to discuss me at all. I'd rather not go into detail about it, for the sake for my other relatives. Just read my poem, the Siblings . That's who I was writing about. And what has been the media's reaction to ...

Girl Logic

Girl Logic (A tea room. A matronly woman sits with a ten-year-old girl.) Instructor: Hello, girls! I hope you're ready for another lesson in Girl Logic . I'm Gail, your instructor, and this is my niece, Jennifer. (Applause.) Thank you for sending us some more examples of your beautiful handwriting, proving the superiority of your language centers . See here how elaborately Jennifer made her 'J'? (She holds up what might pass for a page from the manuscript of the King James Bible. Applause.) Keep up the good work, ladies. One day you may be called upon to write a menu on a chalkboard. Recent studies have shown that you possess an innate gift for shorthand, as well, with prefabricated contractions all ready to go in your brains. Some of you can string as many as twenty-five syllables along one distinctive hump. However, before you write things down, it's important to check your spelling. Do you girls know how to activate your subtitles? You ...
