Bill: “How were they today?”

Jill: “Okay. They played with Play-Doh this afternoon.”

Bill: “Yeah, I saw the circle of white dolphins on the table when I came in.”

Jill: “And Nate spilled his apple juice right in the middle of it all. He came running into the kitchen and I couldn’t understand a thing he was saying, except “Spill-t”. Can you think of a worse combination of two substances together than apple juice and Play-Doh? I just threw it all away.”

Bill: “Were we supposed to save those dolphins? Because I put them back in the can.”

Jill: “No. There was also a circle of orange dolphins, but it was a casualty of the apple juice wave.”

Bill: “The circle of orange dolphins was a casualty of the apple juice wave?”

Jill: “Yes.”

Bill: “That sounds like something someone would say would say in an old spy movie.”

Jill: “What would it mean?”

Bill: “It could be code for ‘although it seemed like a good idea at the time, I guess this exchange wasn’t really worthy of a blog entry, and now I have no good way to end it. Post compromised! Abandon authentic dialog and GET OUT NOW!’”

Jill: “That’s wordy. Why not just stop typing?”

Bill:
