The Consequences (and Rewards) of Boredom

"What is the social and philosophical meaning of he potato?" I look at Tiago with a befuddled expression. I told him he could ask me anything and I would answer it. Of all the things that could've been asked, he asks something as random as this?

However, Tiago and I are known for our randomness, and I was not to be outdone.

"There is no philosophical meaning to the potato. However, socially, thepotato seems to represent all that is randomness. Take this example; There's a Facebook page called 'Can this potato get more fans than Justin Bieber?'

"The power of the potato is nothing compared to that of the kumquat. The kumquat is the supreme ruler of the universe. This is a fact that has been cemented into universal history, and has been since the beginning of time." I smirk at Tiago as I wrap up. However, it seems that Tiago has more tricks up his sleeve. This ultimate contest of randomness and insanity was not over yet.

"I beg to differ. The pineapple is the true ruler and emperor of the universe."

I let a look of outrage cross my face. "HOW DARE YOU? Kumquats are the only true ruler this universe has, and you shall bow to them! Pineapples are nothing more than underwater houses for talking sponges. They represent nothing more in this universe. NOTHING."

Tiago joins me in outrage. "HOW DARE YOU! Pineapples are celebrities from a show known by millions. Pineapples have spread their words of wisdom in such way. Pineapples also have the best hair cut in the entire universe, not to mention a hard surface and a sweet inside. There is no hope for the kumquat, abandon all hope, their rule is over and a new age must start. I will personally escort you to safety if you surrender now and become one of our highest priests. You will have boundless wealth. All you need to do is bow to the Pineapple and it's ever lasting glory."

"NO. I am a proud member of the Kumquatian Honor Guard. I guard the King of Kumquats himself, Super Kumquat. I will not let his rule fall. So you can bring it on with your pineapples. I'll be waiting." As I speak the last sentence, I stand up and walk away, turning towards Tiago and smirking as I leave the room. "I won't even kill you now, just to give your army a fighting chance." I shut the door and leave. This had to be the end of our battle of randomness.
