“Gee, the house sure is quiet. I wonder where everybody’s gone. Bobby’s been a little distant lately and that makes me sad. I mean, we’ve been best buds ever since he was a little guy. We did everything together and he wouldn’t go anywhere without me. And he gave the best hugs at night. Shh! Here he comes now! Bobby! I just knew you wouldn’t leave without me. What’re we doing today?”

“I’m watching TV with Becky …. alone.”

“Gosh, Bobby. You’re my bestie. Who’s this Becky chick?”

“My girlfriend. Adios, Mr. Bill!”

“Ooh nooooo! Come back, Bobby ….

you little shit!”

    1. Thanks for your great comments, KK

      I wonder if you are familiar with Mr. Bill, the clay character from the show Saturday Night Life. I don’t know if the show is aired in India. There are a lot of videos you can watch featuring Mr Bill. He’s a hapless sort of fellow who suffers a variety of indignities brought about by Mr. Hands. The situations always escalate rapidly, ending with Mr Bill being torn apart, always crying “Ooooh Nooo!” in his falsetto voice. It’s rather violent but at the same time very funny. Strange.

      1. Thank you, Nancy for telling me about the details of Mr Bill. I have seen some of his videos and it’s quite amusing to watch them. But now I would definitely like to view his videos more frequently.
