Mark This new album is great.

Happy Mel Wassa album? Like you got it on vinyl?

Angry Mark Don’t make me feel old!

Mel Sorry. So what’s good about it?

Mark It just feel coherent. Not a collection of singles, but as if it were one entire work.

Happy Mel You sound old.

Angry Mark Hush.

Happy Mel Well, you do. You should write a review of it.

Mark I don’t write reviews.

Mel Why not?

Mark I don’t have anything interesting to say. “Gee this is nice.”

Happy Mel It has a good beat and you can dance to it?

Happy Mark Exactly!

Mel Bah, you have a lot to say, always. You could write fun reviews.

Mark No, I mean, really, I would just write reviews about how the song reminded me of a pair of shoes I once had, you know?

Happy Mel I would read the hell out of those reviews.

Happy Mark Shush.

Mel I mean it! They would be great.

Mark Also I would rather spend my time listening to music instead of writing about it.

Mel Well, that’s fair.

Mark I thought so. I don’t know, I don’t even read many music reviews anymore.

Happy Mel I love a good music review.

Mark Me too, but I don’t find as many of them as I once did.

Mel You need to dig a bit harder.

Mark The effort isn’t worth the reward, all too often.

Mel Sad.

Mark I know!

Mel I meant you. Go out and find a good reviewer. Find new music. Sheesh.

Mark This is a sign that…

Mel You’re getting old? Yup.

Mark Ow.

Happy Mel Don’t look at me, I didn’t do it.

Mark Get off my lawn.

Mel This isn’t a lawn. You just threw a bit of lettuce on the ground.

Angry Mark It’s green! And you’re almost standing on it! Whipper snapper!

Happy Mel Oh… kay. I’m gonna go now and send help in a bit.

Mark Ohhh also send some pastrami?

Happy Mel Got it. Orderlies, sedation, pastrami. No problem.

Happy Mark You’re the best.

Mel So can I stand on your lawn?

Angry Mark Don’t push it!
