Regular updates of sarcastic and irreverent nonsense.
Sweet
Tony Wood, owner of the Magic Dust Confectionery corporation, has kick started a war of words, by stating that “Every speck of dust, has a touch of magic about it. Everyone should eat more dust.” The controversial comments were made during a high-level corporate meeting, to discuss a new marketing strategy. When asked to confirm if he stood by his statement, Tony was unapologetic, and said, “Yeah.”
Blissfully unaware of the maelstrom that he had set in motion, Wood then went to a fast food restaurant, once the meeting had finished. According to McDonalds employee Sue Marks, he had “A Big Mac, medium orange juice, and six chicken McNuggets. He didn’t seem familiar with the the menu, so I asked him if he wanted a meal deal for only an extra 50 pence. I was surprised when he turned this down, but what can you do in these days of the customer always being right? I recommended the BBQ ranch dip for his nuggets, but he declined that as well. He was wearing a suit, so he probably didn’t want to get anything on his shirt. Makes sense, I guess, but that dip really is nice.”
Sour
Part-time cleaner John Redgrass wasn’t happy, when he heard about Wood’s claims. ”Look, I spend all bloody day sweeping up after these people, and he comes out with rubbish like that.” Redgrass is keen to dispel the myth before it gets out of control, “Not many people know this, but dust is actually about 70% shedded human skin. So, can someone tell me what’s so bloody magic about that? He’s basically promoting cannibalism. I’m absolutely fuming here, and I haven’t even got around to washing the windows, yet.”
Asthma sufferer Jenny Grain also disagreed with Wood. ”I reckon he’s mentally ill. I have to hoover every, single, room in my house, three times a week, because of my condition. If he thinks that that counts as magic, he’s probably been spending too much time watching those crappy David Blaine clips.”
Eating dust might not provide you with magic powers but I understand it’s loaded with fiber, so eat up, everyone!
Human skin, dead spiders, discarded bits of beetle shell…
Yum!
So you’re saying I should sell my grandma to a magic shop?
Grind her false teeth down, first. You’ll get an extra £5 worth of goodies.
Darnit. I was hoping to join Hogwarts, oh well. No magic for me.
It’s either Hogwarts, or the dust.
Can’t have both.
Anybody? No? Dust.
Anybody? No? Dust.
I did actually keep replaying that sketch over, and over, in my head, when I thought of this one.
You look gorgeous in your new pic, btw
Why thank you Michael! And it is a very good sketch indeed.
I’m not totally sure what I just read, but I like it.
Cheers, I’ll take that as a compliment.
Haha, that was what I intended!
I read that thing you wrote on the positives of piracy a few days ago, you made some really good points.
Cheers, glad at least one person liked it!
Just out of interest, how did you find it? Through Goodreads, or Facebook?
I’m not totally sure. I thought it’d been linked on your blog, but couldn’t find it again a few days after reading it.
I was on Goodreads the other day, so it could well have been there.
My allergies would have to disagree with the poor chap!
Yeah, these bloody business owners, they don’t know what it’s like for us peons.
I always have to remind myself that your posts aren’t real. The whole time I’m like, “Wow I can’t believe someone would say that!” or “I can’t believe he didn’t get the BBQ ranch dip!”
And that, my dear Lily, is why you’re one of my favourite followers!
