Treat Buckets With Bobby
Chatting with Bobby Finger at the end of a long work day.
We're internetfriends/workfriends!
(Based on Bobby's tumblr about a "chocolate snack pack" in the office fridge.)
Bex: DUDE. what is a chocolate snack pack? and why is it in the fridge?
Bobby: it's just pudding. but it's the best pudding because it has the best name
Bex: why is it called a SNACK PACK? a pack of snacks? i see no pack
Bobby: WHY WOULDN'T IT BE
Bex: i see a ... a tub? SNACK TUB
Bobby: WOULD YOU EAT A TUB? i only eat packs. 'tub' makes you feel like a tub.
Bex: i guess tubs are full of gross things. a tub of margarine.
Bobby: packs make you feel like you have a six pack. aka you're healthy.
Bex: do they come in vanilla?
Bobby: they come in all the traditional pudding flavors
Bex: is pudding a snack? i always thought it was more of a treat. a snack is like some goldfish crackers
Bobby: a snack is any small serving of a food that isn't considered an entree. like you can snack on fries. but you couldn't snack on a burger. a treat is a bite-sized version of a dessert. ok so maybe snack pack should be in the treat bucket. i'm writing these rules and contradicting myself. they're treat packs. you're right. they're basically treat tubs.
Bex: wait. i think the snack pack should be called a treat bucket. i think you just named it
Bobby i'm convulsing right now. treat bucket.
Bex: TREAT BUCKET
Bobby: omg. i'd buy them
Bex: why does that make me feel so dirty? i'd buy them and strap them to my face like a feedbag. "i'm sorry, i can't talk to you right now, i am busy enjoying my treat bucket."
Bobby: "hold my calls" "r'ohm rorry, rah canghtralkyourow. riamburryenroyingmyreatbrucketrrrrrr"
Bex: snerk. now i want a treat bucket SO BAD. let's go steal the one in the fridge.

EVERYONE GETS MARRIED
Do you want to get married?
(Not to me, per se. To the person you love).
If you want to get married, especially once it becomes legal for EVERYPERSON TO GET MARRIED in NYC, I have the power to wed you. Here, in my fingertips. For I am an ordained minister with the ULC, and I am legally registered with the City of New York as a wedding officiant.
You just need to be very much in love and excited about getting married, and then you'll just need to get a marriage license. I will do whatever sort of ceremony you'd like. (You want some Hebrew? Sure thing. You want an original song parody about your relationship? I can do that, too. You want the whole thing to rhyme? SURE THING. You want it to be Star Wars themed? OKAY! You'd like your wedding to be all interfaithedly atheistic? GOOD THING, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW I ROLL. You'd like to enter the ceremony riding an elephant? YOU WILL NEED TO FIND THAT ELEPHANT.)
The point being: if you want to get married, I will ordain your wedding. I will sign your marriage license with my very special New York City wedding officiant information and then I will send your license to the city clerk and they will process it, and then you will be all married and shit like that.

Real Talk with the Captain
I’m so sorry. I have made myself laugh so hard that I am crying my eye makeup off. And then every time I stop laughing, I look at this and then I laugh again. I am just sitting here WEEPING. WEEPING. WEEPING. Maybe it's because I was awake until 6am, but this is the funniest thing I have ever written.
