They’re Very Musical People, Aren’t They?
Storage facility owners, that is — I’m not sure what you thought I was referring to. Don’t look at me like that, you know it’s just a joke. I know no one’s laughing, but it was worth a shot. I’d classify it as dead on arrival, but someone might have caught what I was pitching and chuckled.
You see, in the modern world of telling bad jokes on the Intertunnel, it’s hard to tell what will get a giggle out of people, and what will get the SWAT team sent to your house. I try to land somewhere in the region of getting disapproving looks from across the dinner table. Any further than that and someone might give me a stern talking to, which is the last thing I want. The trick is to be so vague and incomprehensible that no one actually knows if you’ve said anything bad or not.
If all else fails, just tell everyone that you were trying to start a commentary on the current political climate. That line works regardless of what the current political climate actually is, Think of it as a get out of jail free card for being a twerp on the Intertunnel. I’m the foremost twerp on the Intertunnel, so it’s a good idea to take my advice to heart.

Thanks for that second video – I knew it was a movie line, but couldn’t for the life of me remember which movie.
I’m almost tempted to look up Mr. Jones’ website, but I don’t have anything that needs storing, and I’m probably in the wrong neighborhood anyway.
Hi Julie, thanks for reading and commenting.
I prefer to store things by not buying them, which is why I don’t have a motorcycle or drying rack in my back yard.
