Quote O' Matic

Mike: "Hi Johnny, what's going on?"

Johnny: "Oh hai Mike, what's new?"

Mike: "Oh, actually Johnny, I got a, I got a little bit of a, tragedy."

Johnny: "Uh-huh."

Mike: "On my hands... yeah. Me and... Michelle, we were... we were making out, uh, in your place?"

Johnny: "Hahaha."

Mike: "And, Lisa and Claudette sort of, uh, walked in on us. In the middle of it. That's not the end of the story."

Johnny: "Go on, I'm listening."

Mike: "OK. We're go-we're going at it, and um, I get out of there as fast as possible, you know, I-I get my pants, I get my shirt, and I get out of there. And then about halfway down the stairs I realise that I, I have misplaced, I have forgotten, something."

Johnny: "Mmm-mmm."

Mike: "Uh... my underwear."

Johnny: "Hahaha."

Mike: "So, pft, so I come back to get it, you know, I pretend I need a book..."

Johnny: "Uh-huh."

Mike: "I'm looking for my book, and I-I-I reach in and put the underwear in my pocket ready to slide out real quick?"

Johnny: "Uh-huh."

Mike: "Well Claudette, she saw it, sticking out, of my pocket?"

Johnny: "Uh-huh."

Mike: "She pulls it out, and she's showing everybody... me underwears."

Johnny: "You must be kidding, underwear, I got the picture."

Mike: "Yeah, I don't know what to do."

Johnny: "That's life!"
