random amusing exchange of the day
Sep. 30th, 2007 02:01 amAs heard on local call in gardening show earlier today (paraphrase):
Caller: How do I get rid of geckos?
Host: Why would you want to get rid of geckos? Geckos are fantastic.
Caller: They're icky and disgusting and I want to kill all the geckos in my yard. How do I kill geckos
Host: Ma'am, geckos are wonderful creatures that eat all sorts of destructive and annoying pests.
Caller: I want to kill the geckos. They're horrible and I hate them.
Host: But...Geckos are really neat. You can see right through their skin and watch their hearts beat. That's really cool, isn't it?
Caller: OMG SHUT UP GROSS!! DEATH TO GECKOS!!!
Host: You are crazy. Even if I knew some secret method of getting rid of all the geckos in your garden, I would not tell you. *click* Folks, geckos are cool. They are also handy to have in your garden. Please don't kill geckos.
Me: *cheer*
I was thinking about this because there are a pair of geckos on the outside of my kitchen window, fighting over a giant moth, and they are being hilarious. It looks a bit like a weird gecko/moth/gecko orgy.
