Shake A Leg

"Hey, come here," I yelled to my assistant.

"What?" she yelled back. "I'm busy."

"Seriously, you've got to see this."

"Aren't you supposed to be working on the budget?" she asked, walking into my office.

"Yes, sure, whatever," I said. "Look." I pointed to the bus stop across the street.

She looked. "Oh my God, what's he doing?"

"Polishing his leg," I said.

"It's in his lap," she said.

"I know. I saw him take it off."

"I didn't expect that," she said.

"I told you it was worth seeing," I said.

"It was," she said, closing the blinds. "Now get back to the budget."

"Okay," I said.

"Polishing his leg," I said.

Now, Snag, trick your assistant into watching the trailer for The Human Centipede.

A man need never steal or beg
When he has a polished leg

Artificial legs? Synchronicity.

I was just about to synchronously do the corresponding comment over at Riddled.

Guard your hadrons.

Pinko Punko said...

I was just going to say that some extra quotes would make all the difference.

Snag said...

Why is it only after the fact I realize the folly of using an expression like "polishing his leg" in present company?

"Ooh look the little doggy is trying to polish your leg, daddy"

Brando said...

Probably getting it ready for his next ass-kicking contest.
