IRONWORKERS: FLYBALL

 

Gemini: flyball. who knew?

Siren: right? 

Gemini: as you can tell by looking at me, i'm more of a cat person. but man did those dogs work for their supper, they're professional athletes!!! thanks for your date.

Siren: running 100-yard dashes, stopping on a dime and turning around like Michael Phelps poaching a dolphin in the water, jumping over hurdles like Jackie Joyner-Kersee, all while gripping a slobbery wet damp moist tennis ball in their mouth, these dogs are better than Rory McIlroy and Secretariat!!! it's not about training, it's about having a microscopic spiritual simpatico with their trainers, a wavelength like a wet bone.

Gemini: they inspire me.

Siren: they inspire me so much i came up with my own American Gladiators game idea.

Gemini: oh it's time for your idea, huh?

Siren: so it's just like a standard flyball course except we use the PETS of the American Gladiators!!! do you have a pet, Gemini?

Gemini: i do now. you. just kidding, i have a lizard.

Ear Horn: my favorite flyball thing is the box turn. box turn, like my vagina...

Eye Luggage stares imploringly at her mother.

Ear Horn: fine, nevermind...

Lindy Lenz: your city is beautiful. like you. 

Bruce: i almost didn't make it but sometimes you just gotta say Fuck L.A., you know? what do you want to do first?

Lindy: Golden Gate Bridge like a proper hiker.

Bruce: can't. the GGB is closed FOREVER just to be EXTRA cautious, you know?

Ms. Krause: ...

'80s seagull: yes, that was our church. and then we'd waddle across the street to the McDonald's for some breakfast fries...

snails: this is the season where we start doing backflips in the swimming-pool puddles...

Ear Horn: i got a new car.........a GrimmSpeed...

Vance Colvig: i'm the only actor to do Disney AND Yogi Bear AND be a wino.

me: cake corkage?

dad: no, a nice butt. but DO take her to a nice restaurant.

Mr. T: it's funny how when i'm eating a banana, but i never remember FINISHING my banana...

Tai: time for our tailbone exercises...

Luke Russert: ...

Luke Russert drooling: i like it when you do those cat-cow stretches, especially the cat part, that's when i REALLY get to see your butt, your butt is FLIPPED HIGH in the air, that is sexy.

Leonardo (the painter): no more new artists on Instagram, i can't fucking take it no more.

Henzy the cat crawls out from under the studio maze lattice to inspect the new game.

Trinity: Henzy!!! i hate it when you yowl like that, it breaks my heart.

Talia: you can stay with us anytime, Unca Henzy. you're my favorite weird uncle.

Henzy: i have, i've stayed in your backyard without you two knowing. yeah it's hard out there for a wild bobcat living on the streets.

Madame Defarge: PLEASE say i own Henzy over at the patisserie.

Henzy: yeah all alone, not knowing where my next meal is coming from, i mean i do get my fair share of the cupcake throwouts but. plus it's cold season, as in the weather is COLD. brrr. no coats for this cat. except my natural coat.

Talia: yeah and stop scampering under those parked cars in the parking lot for shelter, that's quite dangerous, Uncle, you crazy bastard.

Henzy completes the flyball course in under-record Olympic speed, in one second, which is faster than the previous record-holder Dobermann Pinscher the size of a butterfly.

Gemini: wow. that was lightning-quick, pussy.

Henzy: don't call me pussy, i have the teeth of my ancestor Sabre Toothed Bobcat in my mouth, i can pop all your muscles like balloons with one bite.

Siren: he just means there's gotta be a Gladiator named Lightning, right?

Gemini: i've never seen a cat play catch with a damp tennis ball before.

Jen R: story of my life.

Henzy: we CAN, we just choose not to. all this flyball frat-boy stuff is so beneath us, it's so uncivilized.
