"This traffic is the End."
"Don't be such a drama queen."
"Everything depends on this meeting."
"Dude, relax. You can't do anything about it."
"You could . . ."
"I don't work for free, man . . . Seriously? You'd pay it?"
"Yeah."
"What's the angle?"
"No angle. I NEED to make that meeting."
"Who could be scarier than me?"
"Who do you think?"
"Shit. He's taking a meeting with YOU, dude?"
"Yep."
"And all I have to do is get you there? "
"Yes . . .."
"Okay. We're here, dude. Tell the big guy I'm ready."
"He...

Oh My God, It Won't Stop!
This is just loopy, but I think you may enjoy it. Just be sure to turn the volume on your speakers down a bit if you're at work. (Not off, just down.)

The Unit Upgrade
"Mr. President, we have to talk about the unit."
"What unit, Minister?"
"Remember the regiment who was forgotten in the Peltarsh Mountains?"
"Right. The unit of horse archers. Did we ever figure out what to do with all those old compound bows? I've got one in the armoury — it's quite ingenious in design, you know, thought it's primitive. Did you know it uses horn?"
"Yes, sir. We auctioned most of them off on E-Bay. The idea was to help pay for the retraining."
"Excellent. I like to see our ...

The five second rule
It was the best game of zenball ever, and the crowd was wild with excitement: the whisper of butterfly wings was deafening.
The Rotrovra Koan Kangaroos had just scored their first all-in kensho, and the Targenville Half-Lotus Lions replied with a double-satori. The Roos launched a full-out dharma walk, but they were unable to penetrate the Lions' impressive grasp of paradox.

The problem with the apocalypse
The problem with the apocalypse was there was no single event.
