User:Crazy sam10/Ghost complaint

Mre: 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint. (The owner does not respond.) Me: 'Ello, Miss? Ghost fanboy: What do you mean "miss"? Me: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint! GF: We're closin' for lunch. Me: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this character what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique. GF: Oh yes, the, uh, Ghost...What's,uh...What's wrong with it? Me: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it! GF: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting. Me: Look, matey, I know a dead character when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. GF: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable character, Ghost, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage! Me: The plumage don't enter into it. It's stone dead. GF: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting! Me: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up! (shouting at the cage) 'Ello, Mister Ghost! I've got a lovely fresh cuttle fish for you if you show...     (GF hits the cage) GF: There, he moved! Me: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the cage! GF: I never!! Me: Yes, you did! GF: I never, never did anything...     Me: (yelling and hitting the cage repeatedly) 'ELLO GHOST!!!!! Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call! (Takes character out of the cage and thumps its head on the counter. Throws it up in the air and watches it plummet to the floor.) Me: Now that's what I call a dead character. GF: No, no.....No, 'e's stunned! Me: STUNNED?!? GF: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was wakin' up! Ghost stuns easily, major. Me: Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That character is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk. GF: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the fjords. Me: PININ' for the FJORDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im home? GF: Ghost prefers keepin' on it's back! Remarkable bird, id'nit, squire? Lovely plumage! Me: Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place was that it had been NAILED there. (pause) GF: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that character down, it would have nuzzled up to those bars, bent 'em apart with its beak, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee! Me: "VOOM"?!? Mate, this character wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised! GF: No no! 'E's pining! Me: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This character is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e     rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-CHARACTER!! (pause) GF: Well, I'd better replace it, then. (he takes a quick peek behind the counter) Sorry squire, I've had a look 'round the back of the shop, and uh, we're right out of soldiers. Me: I see. I see, I get the picture. GF: I got a Ramirez. (pause) Me: Pray, does it talk? GF: Nnnnot really. Me: WELL IT'S HARDLY A BLOODY REPLACEMENT, IS IT?!!???!!? GF: N-no, I guess not. (gets ashamed, looks at his feet)
