Emails with Andy
-
For the sake of posterity I'm going to start posting some of my stupid email conversations with friends on here. This is from Thursday last week. It was a slow day.
-
Andy: Man I can’t wait for Friday to come.
-
Me: Oh man… I’ve been hanging out for this Friday since last Friday and I already can’t wait until next Friday!!
-
Andy: I’ve got this idea for a movie – imagine if they changed “Friday”, into “FURday” !!!
-
And people wore FUR on that day!
-
I’m thinking Daniel Day-Lewis for the lead role
-
Me: I see it more as an animated kids movie, where on every Friday all the kids in town go out into the woods to play with the animals, then when they have found their favourite animal they skin it and wear it’s fur for the rest of the weekend. At the start of the movie the main characters father dies, but by the end of the movie he has become the man of the house and his mum and his sisters are super proud
-
Andy: Yes because he skinned Big Boris, the meanest old grizzly gear in the woods. Also Big Boris killed his father. The movie ends with him wearing Big Boris’s fur, and being carried down the street by all his friends who are cheering and celebrating. Someone high-fives someone else and the movie ends on a close up of the hands hitting and them both saying “FURDAY!”
-
Me: Dude…. you’re a genius. That ending is FURFECT!
-
Andy: Coming this summer;
-
From the makers of Shawshank Redemption and Forest Gump.
-
FURDAY!
-
Get furked!
-
Me: Take a furnd! It’s the Furfect way to spend your day! Fur real this movie is so good it will be remembered furrever! Don’t Furget
-
Andy: There’ll be furries everywhere :/
-
Man today is dragging on like one of those drag queens. Disgusting.
-
Me: Your damn straight it is. A massive drag. Dragging like a daggy rag through the mud, or a pit like Brad.. When it’s over I’ll stop being sad and start being glad. But right now its just so bad that I’m getting mad like my dad
-
Andy: Is your dad mad? Or are you mad at your dad for being bad? Who cares about dumb old dad anyway, they only play a role in your life until you realise you’ve outgrown them and they aren’t a role model any more. Then you have a boxing match with him and defeat him. Its classic Oedipus complex stuff. Then you marry your mum.
-
Me: I’ve always dreamed of fighting your dad and then marrying your mum
-
Andy: That’s funny cos I’ve always dreamed that we were brothers and you were also somehow my dad. <3
-
Me: That’s hilarious cos I’ve always dreamed that I’m falling backwards but then I wake up just before I hit the ground and my bed is soaking wet.

There were several more emails after this but it basically just degenerated into complete nonsense. Not that we were ever that far away from complete nonsense to begin with.
