(Here is the ‘Peanut’ link if ya wanna find the quote.)
My girlfriend is a poker-player. A real good poker-player.
She reads ‘tells’ like I read comic books, i.e. real good.
I am NOT real good at poker. (Craps, Blackjack? Yeah. I shine there)
Anyway…
Here is a transcribed recent conversation, recently transcribed:
“Lance, you’ve been drinking.”
“No I haven’t”
“Yes you have.”
“How can you tell?”
“Because of your ‘tells.’”
“My what?”
“Your ‘tells’.”
“Oh you mean William?”
“No! I mean your ‘tells’.”
“Huh?”
“You telegraph your state.”
“Texas?”
“No Idiot. You telegraph.”
“I don’t speak Morse Code.”
*exasperated looks*
“Lance, I can ‘tell’ when you’ve been drinking from your ‘tells’”
“Tell me my ‘tells’ so that I may amend them.”
“No fucking way I am telling you your ‘tells’”
“Ah! Why not?”
“You just don’t get it do ya?”
“Do tell…”
“Fuck you!”
“Okay.”
P.S. The dog can ‘tell’ too. But he just don’t give-a-shit.
“Bring me a fuckin’ soup bone.”
I threw this video in just because I love it.
(Adds absolutely nothing germane to the story)
“Ahso Meta-Mook!”
Is this a word? ‘Meta-Mook’?
(I guess that line forms on the right.)
The King of COOL!
