Abner And Jeremy Get Pissy

Jeremy,

says Abner,

I don’t want you to take this the wrong way
but you’re kind of a pain in the ass.

What’s that, Abner?

I said, you’re kind of a pain in the ass.

Eh, we’ve all got trouble
with that at our age, pal.
I think it’s just natural.

No, you’ve been that way for years.

Some of us get a head start,
says Jeremy,

stealing pretzels from Abner’s bowl.

Hey! What’s next —
you want my beer too?

Too late,
says Jeremy, swigging from the mug.
Anyway, I bought this round.

Come to think of it, I bought the round
before it too.
Your turn next time, you deadbeat.

I think I’m tapped out,
says Abner.

See? You’re
catching up to me,

says Jeremy.
