in keeping with the previous post ... i'm man 3.
walking the streets of a major city
man 1: you and i, man, we've got the curse of the fair skin.
man 3: yeah ... i can't get out in the sun.
man 1: what do you shave with?
man 3: mach 3.
man 1: nun-uh. you need the quattro.
awkward pause
man 1: see, the quattro, it has four blades. the mach 3 only has three.

this actually happened
scene: three of us. i'm man 3, quiet, in the back seat. man 2 is driving us to dinner.
man 1: so how's the guest house coming along?
man 2: rockin', man, rockin' ... it's coming along well ... we've got the frame built, and the steel is up already.
man 1: steel? for the frame?
man 2: no. steel roof.
man 1: ah.
man 1: did you get the driveway done?
man 2: driveway?
man 1: yeah ... when i was out there, you were working on the driveway. laying tile or concrete, i think?
man 2: no, we're not doing anything in the driveway.
man 1: are you sure? i remember the driveway being all torn up.
man 2: no, dude ... nothing in the driveway. oh oh oh -- you're thinking of the floor in the guest house.
(silence for a bit)
man 2: we're looking for a gay guy, very meticulous -- well, they all are, but very meticulous, very neat. someone who can walk the dogs -- you know the kind.
man 1: yeah.
man 2: and he'll need it, like, one week a month. so we can rent it out.
man 1: how much?
man 2: $2500.
man 1: $2500?
man 2: yeah. dude, that's rent in LA. that's not too expensive. we're looking for that gay guy, or maybe we'll give it to a struggling actor or something -- you know, he can walk the dogs, take out the garbage, and stay there. it's like you'll get privacy, we'll get privacy. it'll be awesome.
man 1: yeah.
