When we were at school our games were simple.
I played the janitor, you played a monitor.
What the hell kind of game is that?
Simple games:
1. Checkers
2. Candyland
3. Chutes and Ladders
More complex games:
1. Chess
2. Stratego
3. Janitor/Monitor (A role-playing game wherein a "schoolgirl" who mistakes a randy "maintenance man" for a truant student must chase him down and administer cloakroom discipline of a decidedly non-parochial nature.)
"You're so...so like a woman to me."
I love that line. So like a woman, and yet....in actual fact, what? A yeti?

Maybe he played the janitor and she played a monitor lizard, in which case perhaps the game involved him chasing her around with a club or neck snare. Or maybe she really was a monitor lizard, in which case the "so like a woman" line makes more sense, especially if the lizard was wearing hair extensions or a dress or something, as my lizard sometimes does.
ReplyDeleteHow could I have missed that? Another mystery solved here that Rockmocker Command Center. Thanks for sharing, Dan. Enjoy the weekend with your cold-blooded lady friend.
