Man in top hat: Why so glum?
Woman reading in bed: Ruddagubbuk.

Man: None of those syllables were words.
Woman: I- said- I -read- a good BOOK

Woman: It was amazing
Woman: It had -pathos- and -humor- and surprising -depth- and it was even about -all- the topics that I -love-

Man: And that’s glummifying because…
Woman: I DIDN’T WRITE IT

{{alt-text: And now I can’t use my idea about time-traveling cavemen who team up with a race of bird-humans to set up a sham wizard school in the American West in a plot to groom orphan boys to impersonate various missing and presumed dead heirs to massive fortunes around the world because SOMEBODY ALREADY DID IT BETTER}}
