ME: I have to go, Grammy. I have to get to the demonstration.
GRAMMY: You won’t take time to find a job, but you have time for a demonstration?
ME: Yes, Grammy. It’s important.
GRAMMY: Not as important as eating, obviously.
ME: I have my Unemployment, Grammy. And somebody has to do something. The dolphins can’t save themselves.
GRAMMY: And who’s gonna save the fishermen? You may be happy living on Unemployment, but that doesn’t mean they will.
ME: Well, they shouldn’t even be fishing in the first place. People shouldn’t eat other living creatures.
GRAMMY: But it’s okay for the animals you’re trying to save? They can eat other living creatures? And what about those plants you’re continuously shoving down your throat? They’re alive too, you know. Well, they are until you rip them from the ground and cut them into pieces.
ME: Plants aren’t sentient beings, Grammy.
GRAMMY: How do you know? Hard to tell when you don’t speak plant.
ME: I’m going to ignore you, Grammy, and go. See you later.
GRAMMY: (sigh) Give a woman a brain and her possibilities are endless. Give her a cause, and she’ll turn into a blithering idiot every time.
