I'VE FIGURED OUT WHAT I WANT IN LIFE.
GREAT. MIND IF I JUST EAT MY OATMEAL IN PEACE?
I WANT A SWEET WIFE AND TWO KIDS. I WANT A HAPPY HOME WHERE WE SIT AROUND AT NIGHT PLAYING SCRABBLE.
AND I WANT TO TRAVEL THE WORLD AND SEE EVERYTHING AND WRITE IN EVERY CAFE AND DRINK IN EVERY PUB.
AND DO ANYTHING I WANT AND BE FAMOUS AND CHARISMATIC AND LOVED!
AND I WANT TO BE HELD BY A WIDE VARIETY OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, ALL OF WHOM WANT NOTHING MORE THAN TO GO HOME WITH ME!!!
WILL THERE BE ROOM AT THE SCRABBLE TABLE?

I'M FASCINATED BY SLEEP.
WHY IS THAT?
BECAUSE IT'S SO MYSTERIOUS... I MEAN, WHERE DOES OUR MIND GO? WHY DO WE DREAM? AND DO WE DREAM WHAT WE DREAM? IS THAT OTHER WORLD REAL? ARE WE COMMUNICATING WITH OTHERS? IT'S JUST SUCH A FASCINATING MYSTERY. DON'T YOU THINK?

WHAT IS THIS I HEAR ABOUT YOU FIGHTING DUELS?
DUELS WERE A PERFECT- LY ACCEPTABLE WAY OF RESOLVING DISPUTES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. I'M BRINGING THEM BACK.
YOU'RE FIGHTING DUELS OVER ACORNS AND PARKING SPACES! WHAT ARE YOU, A NUTCASE?!
AN UNFORTUNATE CHOICE OF WORDS.

My dearest love,
It has been six months
since your last, rather
impersonal, note to me.
Please write again. But
this time--please--
share with me your deepest
thoughts.
It's time for your
check-up!
NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH
A DENTIST.

HEY, PAL... WERE YOU THE GUY IN THE BLACK S.U.V. WHO TOOK MY PARKING SPACE?
YEAH, SORRY. I DIDN'T SEE YOU WERE WAITING FOR IT 'TIL AFTER I HAD PULLED IN.

THIS SEEMS EXTREME.

DANNY DONKEY HATED WORK BIRTHDAY PARTIES.
I HATE THAT GUY.
He hated the guy who collected money for a present.
WE'RE ALL KICKING IN TWENTY BUCKS FOR CARLOS'S GIFT.
He Hated the cutesy e-mails filled with emotions telling everyone to meet in the conference room for fun and cheesecake. :)
I HATE CHEESECAKE.
FUN'S NEVER FUN.
I HATE EMOTIONS.
But most of all, he hated the awkward horror of standing around with people whom he would not choose to spend even four seconds of his free time.
YOU SEE THE GAME ON SUNDAY?
PLEASE DON'T PUNCH YOUR BOSS.
I HATE THIS GUY.
PLEASE, PLEASE...DON'T PUNCH YOUR BOSS.
So Danny snapped, taking out all his rage on the party's poor piñata.
Take that.
And that.
And that.
And that.
Only there was no piñata.
THIS ISN'T A KIDS' BOOK CALLED "CHOOSING THE RIGHT GIFT"!
Carlos, sorry he didn't...oh, maybe he has some...his mistake. Carlos's mistake. Carlos is sorry.
YOU ARE NOT PUTTING THIS IN A KIDS' BOOK CALLED "CHOOSING THE RIGHT GIFT"!!
BUT IT MENTIONS PIÑATAS. KIDS LOVE PIÑATAS.
