I was pleased when I read my ticket, so I stormed the doorway of the bridge, holding it out as evidence and I shouted, "Take this boat up to ramming speed!" And they said, "Piss off, idiot." And I said, "How dare you countermand my authority, I am your new Captain, as illustrated by this six dollar ticket that says My Ferry!" And they shut the door and kept sailing at what we in the piracy business call 'boring speed'.
This just made me laugh so hard I spat out a bit of toast that I'd previously ingested at 8am. No mean feat.
ReplyDeleteIf I read that correctly, you're storing your food in your mouth upwards of three hours... and probably broadcasting or doing telly or something at the same time. "No mean feat" right back atcha.

ReplyDeleteThe Sydney Ferries will never reach the dizzying heights of swashbuckling at such mild knots per hour.
It's not often one gets to laugh out loud, thank you.
