Yesterday I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow at Home_Plus for
Angel the wonder dog and was about to check out.
A woman behind me asked if I had a dog in broken English. So I figured
she wants a free English lesson right. (What did she think I had, an
elephant?) So since I'm an English teacher in Korea, with little to do, on
impulse, I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, and that I was starting
the Purina Diet again.
So to continue the free English lesson I say" Although I probably
shouldn't, because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost
50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes
coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it
works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat
one or two every time you feel hungry, and that the food is nutritionally
complete so I was going to try it again.
Obviously a good student much better than most free English lessons,
she was horrified, she asked if I ended up in hospital because the dog
food poisoned me.
I told her no; I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish
Setter's tail and a car hit us both.
Home-Plus won't let me shop there anymore. |
