Frugal Franklin.

June 15, 2007 by Andy

Brewer and I were IMing. I’m not going to link him because I link him enough and he’s a big quitter anyway. Anyway, here is our IM conversation in which we created a ridiculously long dialogue between Erik and a passer-by while Erik is walking Franklin:

Guy: What’s franklin like?

Erik: Well, he’s actually pretty frugal.

Guy: Your dog is frugal?

Erik: Yes

Guy: Because he doesn’t spend much money?

Erik: That’s right – he doesn’t spend much. Hardly any at all really.

Guy: Don’t you think he doesn’t spend money because he is a dog, and not because he is frugal?

Erik: I don’t see what you mean.”

Guy: He is a dog.

Erik: Right.

Guy: So he doesn’t spend money.

Erik: No, he doesn’t spend MUCH money. Hardly any in fact. I can’t remember the last time he even got out his wallet.

Guy: He has a wallet?

Erik: Of course he has a wallet! Where would he keep his money?

Guy: Where does he keep his wallet?

Erik: I’m not sure, I haven’t seen him take it out in a while. It isn’t polite to talk about money with friends.

Guy: But it’s your dog.

Erik: I know. He’s sensitive.

Guy: I thought you said he is frugal?

Erik: He’s many things to many different people.

Guy: What does that even mean?

Erik: So frugal people can’t be sensitive? Jeez, you’re an asshole. Now, if you’ll excuse me, Franklin and I are off to by a race car.

Guy: I thought you said he is frugal!

Erik: Oh he is. I am the Spendy Spenderson. Franklin will be telling me the whole time about how we should get the least expensive race car possible.
