[video] punch and judy
Apr. 11th, 2011 07:52 pm[Xerxes Break is combing tangles out of his little doll's hair when the whirr of the PCD alerts him to the fact that it's been turned on. The doll pipes up right away, in her irritating falsetto;]
Ow ow owowowow stop pulling!
I wouldn't have to pull if you hadn't let yourself get this tangled, Miss Emily.
[The ventriloquism is perfect. She continues;]
Help! Please! If someone on the network can hear meeee-
Don't be silly, Miss Emily, you couldn't live with anyone else. None of them would have the patience to put up with your temper or the insults you like to hurl.

Is it because of the way they're dried in the sun, do you think? And have these been steeped before? [She holds the leaf to the kitten; he gives it a polite but thoroughly disinterested sniff.]
