Transcript[edit | edit source]
{Jon, in one of his actually normal date outfits, is on a date. He holds his glass of purple liquid and grins at his date as she looks uncomfortably off to her upper right. The waiter stands by. Jon sets down his glass and, holding a finger up in the air and resting his elbow on the table, says something extremely ill-advised}
Jon: Yes, pog collecting can be very rewarding...
{His date brings a hand up to her chin, her face portraying a look of utter terror}
Date (but not for much longer): EEEEEEEEEEEK!!!
{Jon and the waiter are startled}
Date (seriously, she's about to abandon it): HELP! HELP! MY DATE IS TALKING ABOUT POGS!
{Jon is stunned. The waiter quirks an eyebrow at her, and looks at her as if to say, "What's wrong with this lady?"}
{An older couple, possibly old enough to be her parents, come over}
Older woman: There, there dear... you can sit at our table
{The young woman hugs the older around the neck and cries gratefully onto her shoulder}
Young woman: Oh, thank you!
{The older woman pats her back comfortingly. Jon watches them leave, still stunned. The waiter looks at the reader}
Waiter: I collect bottle caps
Jon (having snapped out of it): OH SHUT UP!
