Queens Burger, on Queens Boulevard, in Queens, NY
J and G are joined by Itamar, who doesn't understand the appeal of cheese fries.

I: So basically you're reviewing things where you say this could be worse?
J and G: (assent)
I: (looking at the fries the waitress puts down) This strikes me as wrong.
G: It's the great American pastime!
J: It is not!
G; Well, baseball isn't.
J: I didn't say it was the right answer.

I: (trying a fry) This is not so bad.
J: We're saving the cheesiest one for you.
I: (flinches)
J: How rude, I'm offended.
I: That's ok.

G: (drops a ketchup-covered fry on the paper)
I: That's a review.

G: They went so quickly.
I: You could get more.
J: That's so against the rules.
I: You have rules?

I: How many of these have you guys done? (long discussion, which alarms him) I don't know what to say.
J: Nobody does.
I: So you mean everything I say is written down?
J: Yeah, and she's not going to get it right.
I: I guess I shouldn't say anything about the government.
G: (writes down "Itamar hates the government, and says so")

Jen reveals that she was trained, as a congressional intern, to kill a guy with an ice scraper or a clipboard. Posted by Gus at April 09, 2003 09:06 PM | TrackBack
