Sunday Blog...

I'll write about the book...Uh....Crap. Can't think of one.

Well not one I can make fun of at least. Actually I can!

A Christmas Carol by some old guy who is probably dead...

I'll probably get my head bitten off for mocking this book because I could only read till page 7 and then gave up.

I read page 7 like twenty times and I still couldn't get past it.

Here's what I got from the first 7 pages...

Author:Scrooge is crabby
Me: And old lonely guy is crabby?! No way!
Author: He owns a business
Me: Maybe that's why he's crabby...
Author: His business partner was dead.
Me: Poor him. He's probably even more lonely.
Author: Dead like a doorknob.
Me: Yep. So you said.
Author: The partner the is so dead he makes dead look alive.
Me: ....
Author: In fact he's more dead then other dead people.
Me: -Starting to count all the times he mentions how dead the partner is-
Author: Everyone wishes they could be as dead as he is when they die.
Me: -Quickly running out of fingers to count all the times author mentions this point-
Author: Too bad they can't be dead like him.
Me: -Has given up and is dying...But not like Scrooge's partner-
Author: Yes. So just in case you were wondering. He's dead.
Me: -Dies-

Anyways so after reading that page a bunch I said 'Forget this. I know the story!' (It was an in-school book in 8th grade)

But I began thinking that when the dead partner comes back to warn Scrooge about the three ghosts, I think it'd go something like this...

Author: Remember -insertname-?
Me: Hm...He's alive right?
Author: WRONG! DEAD!
Dead Guy: Hello Scrooge. Remember me? I DIED!
Scrooge: WHAT?! I thought you were dead?!
Dead Guy: Yes. I am dead.
Scrooge:But if you are dead how are you speaking with me?!
Dead Guy: Well see dead folk like me get bored. So we like to mess with the minds of the living.
Scrooge: Wow. You dead people are mean.
Dead Guy: I know. Now that I am dead I am very bitter.
Scrooge: Wow. If you're bitter because you're dead I'll be like loathing everything more then I already do when I die!
Dead Guy: Ah yes...Now that we're done talking about how dead I am...Let's move onto how dead you'll be.
Scrooge: Me?! DEAD?!
Dead Guy: Yes. But you won't be as dead as me.
Author: Did I mention that the dead guy talking to Scrooge is dead?
