Shop Assistant: Can I help you with anything today?

 

Customer: Yes, I'm looking for a certain object.

 

Shop Assistant: And what kind of object is that?

 

Customer: Well you see it's really rather special...

 

Shop Assistant: ...yes...

 

Customer: But I feel sort of weird saying it out loud where other people might hear me

 

Shop Assistant(puzzled, yet polite): I can't really help you find this special object unless you give me some hints.

 

Customer: I know! I'll describe it to you.

 

Shop Assistant(not as polite, as it is getting close to lunch time): Right.

 

Customer: Well it's not too big, but not too small. It's just right.

 

S/A: Mmm-hmmm.

 

Cust: It's small enough to fit in my pocket, but it's big enough for my cat to sleep on.

 

S/A: Mmm-hmmm

 

Cust: And it's magenta in colour.

 

S/A: I don't think we have anything in Magenta-

 

Cust: -oh hush silly boy. It was all the rage in Gdansk last Summer. The last letter of this object is 'y'

 

S/A: Y?

 

Cust: Why not?

 

S/A (looking desperately at watch): I really don't think I can help-

 

Cust: -oh but you must! It's a matter of life or death I assure you-

 

S/A: But unless you tell me what it is-

 

An anvil, grand piano and water buffalo drop from the ceiling and crush the S/A and the Cust to death. Another customer steps forward and turns to a passer-by.

 

Customer #2: I would've thought it was obvious. He was looking for a Goihsdfjhkjdfvby!

 

Passer-by: Moron.
