hey, mg! are you a muppetist?
a what?
a muppetist! i am.
um, ok, roger. i am really not even going to ask--
it means someone who likes the muppets. duh. don't you like the muppets?
well, yeah, but--
remember that song? it was like da da da da da, DA DA DA DA DA, DA! DA! DA! DA!--
yes, i remember it.
well, see? you're a muppetist, too. all this time i was one, and i didn't even know there was a word for it.
that's because there isn't. where did you hear this?
i was getting milk in the coffee room and i heard two people walk in talking, but only sort of, you know like how you can hear people talking but you can't hear exactly what they're saying, because you're kind of humming something and your head is in the refrigerator? it was like that.
uh huh.
and then i heard one of them say my name, so i was like, they're talking about me, and then they said something about muppetism.
ahh.
so i figured out what it meant, and i turned around to them and i was like, yeah! i do love the muppets! how did you know?
hm.
and they just looked at me, because they probably didn't realize i was standing right there. so i was like, "yeah, i used to always watch them growing up." and then i was like, "me and my uncle used to always watch together. you know, the one who works down the hall?" and they just had this weird sort of shocked look.
i can imagine.
i guess they didn't think he was the kind of person who likes the muppets.
