Emmett: Why did the scarecrow win an award?
Me: I don’t know. Why?
Emmett: Because he was outstanding in his field. Badum-dum-tsh.
Me: Oh, my God. You’re so corny.
Emmett: But you laughed. Please tell me you laughed.
Me: Okay, fine. I laughed. But only because I haven’t had my second cup of coffee yet.
Emmett: It’s 9:30. I’ve been up for 3 hours and already had two cups of coffee, a run, a shower, and a bagel.
Me: It’s Saturday. Only psychopaths get up that early on the weekend.
Emmett: Speaking of breakfast, why do seagulls fly over the sea?
Me: I’m afraid to ask.
Emmett: Because if they flew over the bay, they’d be bagels.
Me: I really need more coffee.
Emmett: Have an awesome day, Elle.
Me: Have an awesome day, Emmett.
