"What are those?"

"Unbearables"

"And?"

"It's a confectionary with The Power of Sour", I use my best impression of an advert voice over voice, it sounds perfect to me but may sound like Mayor Quimby to anyone listening - The Powa of Sowa. "All the cool kids are eating them, try one."

A small bear is dutifully tasted.

"Eww, it's really sour."

I put on my understanding face, the one that is obviously fake, "I mentioned that."

"The cool kids eat these?"

"Yup"

"Do you always do what the cool kids
are doing?"

I ponder this.

"I mean if they all jumped off a cliff would you?"

I ponder this further.

"Well?"

"It's a dilemma. You see, I am the cool kids, would I slavishly follow myself? That's the question."

"You're such a flake."

"Jealous. Plankton envying the ocean that holds them."

"May I have another?"
