" Nope, nothing" "I keep trying to have an opinion but nothing happens in my head" "My point exactly" "Men can'thave opinions about fabric They haven't got the equipment" " So what happened?" " What?" "With Sally's ass?" " Bollocks" " What's wrong?" "I just cut you off" "Steve?" "Yes, Sally" "You're Standing right behind me, aren't you?"

"She's my best friend" "My best friend's boyfriend has seen my bottom" "There must be a rule about that" "A Rule just for bottoms?" "You've never understood about bottoms, Jane" "Having a bottom is living with the enemy" "Not only do they spend their lives slowly inflating, they flirt with men while we're looking the other way" "I think you've got a very troubled relationship with your bottom, Sally" "Well?" "I nearly had an opinion about that one" "What was it?" "It's got a lot of lines" "Okay, what do you think about that?" "I don't know" "You see?" "It's not genetically possible for men to have opinions about fabric" "So anyway..." "What did, uh..." "Susan say about the whole Sally's ass thing?" "It only happened this morning I haven't told her yet" "You can't tell her, Steve You can't tell her,ever" "Why?" "Sally is Susan's best friend" "She's completely off-limits" "You have seen into the very heart of the forbidden lands" "You must never speak of what you saw" "The forbidden lands?" "Best friends and sisters you can talk to them you can be friends with them but you never get a backstage pass" "What, you mean you're allowed to do everything else?" "No,what he's saying is:your girlfriend's best friend and Sisters are off-limits" "I dated twins once for a month" "Exactly." "And what happened when they found out?" "When they found out?" "They were working me in shifts!" "I was in a three some,I didn't even know it" "I was exhausted" "I kept wondering when she slept when she ate" "Why she kept changing her name?" "So how could even you not notice you were dating two different people?" "You see, identical twins can have a weird psychic link" "Yeah, you're right Identical would been worse" "Okay,Okay,Sally's bottom what did you think?" "Well, it...it was a bottom it was one I hadn't seen before I wasn't bored" "Did you like it?" " I like Susan's better" " Then why bother with Sally's?" "Well, it...it was fresher" "And it was...it wasnewbottom to me it increased my bottom-seeing total" " Ah" " No,no,no,Susan and me we're very together now" "We're at that kind of moving-in stage You know, it's all about fabrics and curtains and...and cushions.." "Susan gave me this a week ago" "I was supposed to have an opinion by now" "How am I expected to have an opinion in a week?" "So,what If you tell Susan that you've seen Sally's bottom?" "I will tell her.We're honest with each other,we tell each other things" "Yeah, and what If Susan asks" "If youliked her best friend's bottom?" "What if" "Do you know what she'll really be asking?" "Do you know what Captain subtext would say?" "captain subtext?" "She'll be saying:" "do you Fancy my best friend?" "And who is captain subtext?" "So what will you tell her when she asks you that?" "The truth" "But youdofancy her Everybody fancies Sally" "Okay, I'll tell her lies" "She'll know" "Will Captain subtext tell her?" "Captain subtext isn't a real person, Steve" "Yes, I got that" "So who will tell her?" "The prickles, the blurts, and the head laugh" "And are they real, or do they work with the Captain?" "Oh, Steve, they're real" " Hi,hi, sorry I'm running late" " No problem" "Can't stay long, late night shopping with Steve" "We're at the furniture stage" " Goodluck" " Oh, no, he's taken a real interest" "He's had a pattern book for a week" "I May need both your opinions on a sofa, by the way" "Ooh, I love giving opinions I've got hundreds" " Did you use my shower,okay?" " Sure, thanks" "Steve turned up, by the way he lost his keys" "Oh, right." "Hope he didn't catch you with your kit off" "stage one: the prickles" "You can feel the prickles starting all over your face" "If you justthink the word "blush"" "Your head will inflate to three times its normal size" "And then you realize you're not saying anything" "Your stuck on "pause"" "And you've forgotten how to work your face and the pause is just getting longer and longer and you've got to get back in control" "Mistake two: the blurts" "No, no, of course he didn't No,no,No way as if" "No, of course not Why would you think that?" "I mean, come on, Susan" "Then you realize you were speaking too fast, and you've got to compensate you've got to make it seem all right" "That's when you make the biggest mistake of all" "You do the head laugh" "Okay, what's wrong?" "Was he the one with the magic ring?" "I'm sorry?" "Captain subtext" "Did he have this ring that shoot out this ray and it would become like a giant fist or an axe or something?" "No, that was green lantern" "Was he the one with the giant Cave?" "Patrick, there isn't a Captain subtext!" "It's just an expression for when you say one thing and mean another" "Exactly, he didn't have a cave" "He lived in our attic and had secret meetings with my mother" "Right" "He had a special helmet of truth detection" "If I ever told any lies, he's sneak into my room when I was asleep and perform surgical operations on me" "You can stop any time you like, Jeff" "Every morning I'd check and my penis would be a tiny bit smaller" "Every time I told a lie, he's sneak in and remove another segment" "Segment?" "That's how my mother would know if I'd been fibbing" "Keep up with all your lying, Jeffrey" "I've always wanted a daughter" "Ah, mothers, eh?" "I'm sorry, but that's completely mad" "It's a little special, isn't it?" "People don't say one thing and mean another, it just doesn't happen" "People make subconscious slips." "We all do it" "Thank you,Steve, but I think you'll find not everybody has a subconscious" "Very probably true" " OK, anyone want another drink?" " Great, yeah" "Better not." "Came in my penis" "I'm taking it to the garage been having trouble lately it just won't start" "Your car?" "I said "penis" there, didn't I?" "So..." "Having a bit of car trouble, are we?" "Anything you wanna share with us?" "Any of your motoring difficulties?" "Yeah,now look,you guys you two may have subconsciouses but let me tell you there's nothing going on inmyhead!" " All right, only joking" " Just kidding, Patrick" "Yeah,anyway,it was your fault,you started talking about traitors in the first place" "Penises" "Not traitors, penises" "Hoo, anyway, look at the time it's well past time I was getting off Bye, guys" "Bye" "See you" "Okay, so Steve saw your bottom, So what?" "So my relationship with your boyfriend has been thrown completely off balance by the Weight of my bottom!" "Can I please rephrase that?" "Well, look, I'm not exactly feeling threatened here" "Steve's terrified of you, and you think he's useless" "You like men who can do things" "Don't we all?" "No, I mean practical things She likes plumbers, carpenters" "She cruises the yellow pages" "I do not" "She's been known to put on her best frock and sabotage the dish washer" "What would be the point?" "I hate having sex at home" "I've got a listening flat mate" "Oh, no!" "I hate those" "Do you have to be really quiet for her?" "No, I have to be really loud to perform i competitive" "You know, I'd never have pegged you as liking the practical type" "Oh, I like a man you can kick out of bed and he'll do things around the house it means there's a point to..." "all the rest of him" "I like a man in a tool belt It's all just there, in a row" "Sex and mending things" "It says:" "I can fix your cistern, and I can..." "Fix your cistern" "I've always thought plumbers must be the best at sex" "I mean, there must be a lot of useful crossovers" "Well, then" "I just need a good reason to call out a plumber" "Aah, your shower" "Good idea, I'll break my shower" "No, your shower is broken" "I'm sorry?" "You had to use mine this morning, remember?" "Of course,exactly,my shower's broken I had to use yours" "Silly of me forgetting like that" "You can fake an opinion" "Yeah, you could have an opinion about patterns with lots of spots" "Like what?" "Well, you could say that, um.." "You're undecided about spots" "That's not an opinion, that's nothaving an opinion" "I can't go in with that" "Why?" "You're feeling guilty?" "Yeah, a bit" "About the ass-seeing?" "Yes,about the...ass-seeing" "But that's all you did, isn't it?" "You just ass-saw" "Of course it is, nothing more What makes you think that?" "Nothing?" "I think perhaps you should go" "Right" " Steve" " Yes?" "Could you stop thinking about my bottom, please?" "I'm not" " You're picturing it" " I am not." "I've moved on" "It's still in there it's in there now you've reminded me" " Well, get rid of it" " You keep bringing it up!" "I can't get it out of my head it's...expanding" "Elles grossissent." "Expanding?" "!" "Like...space jelly!" "What's space jelly?" "I don't know!" "My bottom is not expanding space jelly!" " I'm just big-boned!" " Oh, thanks." "Now I've got breasts!" "For God's sake!" " Are they gone yet?" " Yes, they're gone" "Thank you" "Steve, I am your girlfriend's best friend" "I know" "As for as you are concerned, I stop from the neck down" "As far as I'm concerned, you're not even plumbed" "Plumbed?" "Sorry,sorry!" "Let's try putting this delicately, shall we?" "Yes, delicately would be good" "As Susan's best friend" "I am, to you, a bit like Australia" "Australia?" "Very distant, largely uninhabitable and with areas of great danger" "Oh, right, I..." "I see" "Good" "I thought it was about having a lot of convicts" "I was trying to say, Steve, that there are very few areas of me where you can go in safety" "Right, good, very delicate way of putting it" " Thank you" " You mean,I can visit your Sydney?" "or your Melbourne?" "Exactly" "But I'm not welcome in your bush" "I..." "I'll probably just go" "I think you probably will" " Oh, by the way" " What?" "You're not in the least bit big-boned" "You're fine" "You look great, really" "Thank you" " Steve..." "Do you mean that?" " Em?" "I'm sorry?" "I'm asking..." "Do you mean that?" " Do you really find me attractive?" " Sally" "Sorry about this." "My boyfriend's really let me down" "Don't worry, we're open till 10" "Pity" "Why do girls like you always have a boyfriend?" "Because I have a acute nymphomania and my own brewery" "I like women with a sense of humor" " You'll attract them" " OK" " Is this the one?" " I think so" "Sally's there" "I know" "With her ass" "It'd be quite scary If she left it at home" "You don't understand" "I can't look at her without imagining her ass now" "It's like it's transmitting:" "I'll look at her face, and I get ass!" "It was me that saw it." "Me, not you!" "Yeah,I know, but it's out there now" "You released it, Steve" "Sally's ass has tasted freedom, and it's never going back" "Steve, Hi" "Hi" "I thought you weren't coming" "What do you think of this?" "What is it?" "It's a suede cushion" "Well, I'll need a little more time" "Okay, did you bring the pattern book?" "Yeah, absolutely, here it is" "Any opinions?" "We have other fabrics Would you like to see them?" " Do you have anything with...spots?" " No" "Oh,because actually,I'm...undecided when it comes to spots" "Well, I'm sorry we're going to have to miss out on that" "Why are you staring at my face?" "I'm not, I'm not,I'm staring at your face" "What?" "!" "Okay, so after a whole week" "You haven't actually managed to have a single opinion, have you?" "Um...about that number, yes" "Okay, this is fine, no problem" "Um, can everyone just come and have a look at this sofa, please?" "This is the sofa we're thinking of buying and what we've gotta do is choose a covering" "I'm gonna show you my favorites" "Anyone scared so far?" "I'm scared" "You're always scared, Jeff you don't count" " Yeah?" " Right" "I want to know what you really think" "CAPTAINE SUBTEXT TRANSMITTING" "TRUTH HELMET ACTIVATED" "AUTO-TRANSLATE OPTION ENABLED" "You've seen my best friend naked" "Emm,I've..."

"I have an enormous penis" "Actually, I've got a bigger penis,by far" "Sorry, but my penis is staggeringly vast" "Look,I'm...'m...massively well-endowed" "I'm the manager here so my penis" "is like an enormous train, with gigantic" "Oh, for God's sake!" "Can you please just be honest with me?" " About what?" " Anything!" " The fabric thing?" " Anything at all" "Just give me some evidence of sentient activity instead of just Standing there waiting for something else to be indecisive about" " Are you all right?" " What's wrong, Susan?" "Cleft?" "Oh,I mean...sorry" "What do you expect?" "You bring me to a place like this, I mean..." "I can't have opinions in a place like this" "I just have to fake opinions to stop you getting cross" "Oh, don't be ridiculous" "Okay, okay, I'll show you" "What is this?" "It's a cushion" "Right,yes, it's acushion" "Thank you for that, very informative" " Have you got any of these?" " No" "Of course you haven't." "You..." "are you married?" " Living with anyone?" "Got any of these?" " No...no" "Of course not!" "OK" "You bring these things into our homes" "TRhey...they sit on our chairs" "They watch our televisions" "Now,I..." "I just need to know on behalf of all men everywhere" "I just need to ask, please what are they for?" "I mean, look at them look at the chubby little bastards" "They just sitting around everywhere" "What are they?" "Pets for chairs?" "Come on,you Sell them, what are they for?" " Well..." " You sit on them" "That's where you're wrong Nobody sits on them" "OK, watch this" "Here's the cushion I'm putting it on the sofa" "Now watch me:" "I'm sitting down" "And what do I do on my final approach?" "I...oh!" "Move the cushion" "Did you see?" "It's not involved!" "It's not part of the whole sitting process it justliesthere...it's fat litter!" "It's a sofa parasite!" "It's, you know...padding" "Oh, padding." "Oh, now, that's interesting" "See, I like padding" "You know, if I was, say, an American football player" "All those big bastards running at me I would say" "Give me some of that padding and be quick about it" "If my job involved bouncing down jagged rocks" "I would say: in view of those jagged rocks down there, I'll have some of that padding,thank you very much" "But Susan,Sally,Jane this is a sofa" "It is designed by Clever scientists in such a way so as to shield the unprotected user from the risk of skin abrasions" "Serious head trauma, and, of course..." "Daleks" "You do not,trust me girls trust me on this one you do not need padding to tackle upholstery" "So please once and for all, tell me:" "Why on Earth you would want me to sit on one of these?" "Because if you pressed it firmly against your bottom" "It might stop you talking!" " I saw Sally naked" " I know" "It was an accident, so what?" "Oh, right Of course" "And that's all there is to it, right?" "It's just a stupid mistake" " Absolutely" " Of course it is" " Nothing more to it = Why would there be?"

"For God's sake, what do you want me to do?" "Measure it?" "There's nothing here that a man would find...repulsive?" " Of course not!" " Then why are you looking so frightened?" "Because you're Sally!" "Because the next time I see you I'll be thinking of you naked!" "It'll be like meeting Jenny Agutter" "Jenny Agutter?" "Imagine meeting Jenny Agutter" "It'd just be like:seen that,seen that" "Jenny Agutter will do just fine!" "Thank you" "Bye now" "What?" "Would you mind?" "I've got no clothes on" "Oh, right, yes" "why?" "Why did you do that?" "Actually, yes...why?" "I was feeling a bit insecure needed a bit of a boost" "Sally, you flashed my boyfriend!" "The truth, now" "Well, pretty sure I'mstill attractive so..." "I don't think it's my fault" "I've never had a failure before" "Well, neither have I" "Never, ever" "Maybe we shouldn't have been here for the first time" "You're not gonna tell anyone about this, are you?" "Oh, Patrick, of course not" "You and Patrick!" "?" "When did..." "Patrick had a failure!" "It's like discovering there isn't a father Christmas!" " Patrick?"
