Nights-time Monkeyshines (Part 1)

This is what I picture going on inside that little house during its tenure as a bakery

A couple buildings to the east of the Sev is a small building that has had a number of businesses reside there. It looks like a house. In fact it must have been a house at one point and somehow got zoned for business. This building is terribly inconspicuous.

One night, late, as several of us were going to the Sev for video games and slurpees we noticed that the small marquee in front of this building (which at that time was being used as a bakery) had the following advertisement: "Assorted Meat Pies / 89 cents."
We realized that with a little help from ourselves the sign could become much more humorous so we removed the "orted" from the first word. I'm pretty sure we didn't stop laughing for about 3 days.

  1. It wasn't Karate Champ ("Full point!"). You were the undisputed champeen of that game unless I can't remember ever playing that game with you which I can't. It was a side scroller. Ninjas. Ninjas, I say! Karate Champ was just for karate, not ninja specialization.

  2. I think that "ass meat pies" are an actual German food.

  3. This is one of the scenes in my upcoming screenplay: Paul & Joel.

    I'm trying to decide whether or not to use "The antics of..." as part of the title.

    The movie will be along the lines of Dumb and Dumber, but much less dumb. Not to give too much away, but the opener is going to be the event of you two harassing the organ-practicer by yelling "Yeh Naht...!" at her and running out of the church.
