Tati as TATI

Tony as TONY
ACT 5 SCENE 3
THROUGH THE LOOKING HOLE
Set in the lounge room of a cosy three-storey tree house in an unspecified fantasy location.
TATI is sitting in a comfortable armchair. She is reading a book entitled ‘Unicorn Farts: How the Rainbow was Born’ with a serious face.
TONY wanders in, wearing a sandwich board advertising something called ‘Hole-in-the-Wall’. He turns to the reader (that’s you) and bellows…
TONY: You! Hey you! Yeah, reader! This is a hardcore sales pitch!
TATI: What the hell?
TONY: Buy our stuff! Buy it now! Buy it or die! (Well, everyone dies. Eventually.)
TATI: Tony…
TONY: Just goddamn BUY our stuff so we can get filthy stinking rich and avoid paying taxes like the top one percent! Yeah. Just… YEAH.
TATI: Tony.
TONY: Do it, man! And woman. Plural.
TATI: TONY!
TONY: What?!
TATI: This is shit and you know it. It wouldn’t even hook a dead fish.
TONY: Huh?
TATI: Take off that silly hairpiece, please. You’re not Donald Trump.
TONY: I’m only trying to spruik our new shop page.
TATI: Hole-in-the-Wall isn’t a fly-by-night pyramid selling scheme. It should be presented with dignity.
TONY: Fine. I’ll be boring then. Dear reader, Hole-in-the-Wall is our new shop page. You can find it here on Unbolt Me, and it features our first two eBooks. Eventually, we will have other stuff you can buy as well, but for now please do enjoy our literary offerings.
TATI: Amen.
TONY: Oh, and our books will help you to lose weight. Maybe even get rid of dandruff and carpet stains…
TATI: Tony! Are you an idiot? Do you want to be beaten for your shameless lies?
TONY: Frickin’ women. Can never make ’em happy. Not ever.

In all honesty Tony, I rather like how Tati somewhat keeps you in line, even if it is for marketing purposes only. Haha!

It’s probably a good thing that Tati gets in the way. She keeps me grounded so that I don’t run off doing some fool thing or other. Hee hee! Not many yet by the way, but the sky’s the limit! 😀

I’ve never been keen on raw celery 😱
LikeLiked by 2 people
Point taken. It is rather bland, isn’t it? And it doesn’t even have the novelty factor of broccoli which at least looks like a miniature tree so that you can pretend you’re a giant eating one (while ignoring the bland taste). Hm. It occurs to me that I may think about these things entirely too much… 😛

I like celery in soup though!! A big yeah to broccoli trees.

With other ingredients, not merely celery, I suspect that would be terribly bland!! 😱

One day I will buy me a kindle, or Santa will bring it, or my husband will take care of it or maybe the Easterbunny. But one day I will be able to read an e-book like all the other modern (much more modern) people around me.

So how do you read e-books? (Trying not to sound too stupid here)
LikeLiked by 2 people
You don’t sound stupid at all! eBooks are a bit of a mystery to me to be honest with you. However, there is an app you can download from Amazon that allows you to read Kindle books on your PC (or Mac). That’s what I use on the rare occasion I do happen to read something that isn’t all papery and printy. 😛
