002 Audio - The One Where Mike Tries To Barter

[michaeljangelo]

So...okay. Here's the thing. I can live frugal. I'm good at living frugal. There are fewer people out there who can dumpster dive as efficiently as I can. Trust me, my stone soup? Is amazing. I can make a Reclaimed Tuna Casserole Surprise that will knock your socks off.

As awesome as I am, even I can't make something from literally nothing, which is kind of what I've got at the moment. I say kind of because I have a whole bunch of little pots of home-made Floating Fruit preserves, jams, and jellies, and now that I'm officially out of money, I'm looking to trade them for...anything edible that isn't floating fruit. I've had my fill, thanks.

So, anyone out there interesting in jam for say...chocolate?
Or jam for bread?
Or jam for...seriously, anything.

Our father. Who learned from his master, and so on.

Huh. That sounds... kind of nice.

...not so much in your experience, huh?

Angels start out knowing how to use their Heavenly Weapons, you just get better with practice. It's not really learning.

I'm sorry...did you just say you're an angel?

Please don't tell me you're another person who's going to be stuck on that concept.

Re: audio;

[michaeljangelo]

I'll make you a deal.
If you don't get stuck on the idea that I'm a mutant turtle, I won't get stuck on the idea that you're an angel.

Re: audio;

[candystriped]

... I can work with that.

Re: audio;

[michaeljangelo]

Yeah? Well okay then. Good.

Re: audio;

[candystriped]

You were expecting me to say no?

Re: audio;

[michaeljangelo]

Honestly?

Well...yeah, kind of. But that's more a self preservation tactic than like, anything else. If I set my expectations low, then there's less chance of being let down. Whole lot easier being an optimist that way.

Re: audio;

[candystriped]

I know how that is. I have to set my expectations low in order to deal with most humans.

I know right? I'd say that they're the worst things ever, but they're so damn entertaining I can't help but love them.

Re: audio;

[candystriped]

Uh... right.
