A Typical Conversation on the Way to Work...
Subaru: Where'd you guys go to dinner last night?
Me: A Chinese place called, "Yuan Tung." Pretty tasty.
Subaru: Yeah, that's an old Karachi favourite.
Me: I wouldn't know.
Subaru: No you wouldn't.
Me: Right. Well, it's across the street from another Chinese restaurant called "Little China." But I didn't want to go there because I've heard they had some big trouble a little while back.
Subaru: Ha! Big Trouble in Little China.
Me: You nailed that one.
Subaru: Ya, that was a classic film.
Me: Never seen it, I just make jokes about the title... Kurt Russel right?
Subaru: Yeah, basically, there's this demon loose in China-Town...
Me: Wait, I think you mean, "Little China"... hey wouldn't it be funny if there was actually a Little China full of Chinese midgets?
Subaru: Shut up Dave.
Me: What? It just strikes me as something those wily Chinese might do. Anyway, there's a demon...?
Subaru: Right. And the demon has been hunting for thousands of years for a green eyed Chinese girl.
Me: Virgin?
Subaru: Couldn't hurt. So Kurt Russel's friend is dating a green-eyed, Chinese girl.
Me: Convenient.
Subaru: So the Kung-Fu guys that worship the demon go after the girl, and the Kung-Fu guys that support Kurt Russel go after them.
Me: Were those cats as fast as lightening?
Subaru: Ya. It was a little bit frightening.
Me: So then?
Subaru: So then, I dunno, a whole lot of shit goes down.
Me: Ok, so two Kung-Fu gangs are battling an ancient demon for a green-eyed girl and then a whole lot of shit goes down.
Subaru: Pretty Much. Oh, and it also features an early appearance of Kim Cattrall.
Me: Who's Kim Cattrall.
Subaru: The old, slutty one on Sex and the City.
Me: Isn't that all of them?
Subaru: The oldest and sluttiest.
Me: Oh right. You're a big fan are ya?
Subaru: I'm not the one who's seen every episode of Desperate Housewives.
Me: I'm telling you, it's a good show! And since I'm an honest guy, I'll tell you that while you were at work last Saturday I watched Season Six of Sex and the City.
Subaru: What!
Me: In my defence, there are a lot of naked women in that show.
Subaru: A lot of naked men too.
Me: That's why you watch it, you mean?
Subaru: Shut up.
Me: You shut up.
Subaru: Anyway, now I'm thinking we'd better find a copy of "Big Trouble..."
Me: Oh yeah, sounds like a quality film. We should track it down.
Subaru: But we won't.
Me: No, no we won't.
