Like funny ha-ha?

Isn’t it strange?

What?

How people think I’m funny now.

Peculiar? Is that bad? You’re always making fun of “normal people.”

No, not funny strange. Funny like a comedian.

You *are* funny. You’ve always been funny.

But nobody used to think so.

Nobody?

Only a few people. The ones I wasn’t afraid to talk to. They always thought I was funny.

Because you are.

Yeah, but why does everyone notice now? They didn’t used to.

I did.

But hardly anyone else did. I have fans now. People I don’t even know think I am funny.

How do strangers even hear what you say?

Twitter. Facebook.

Strangers see you on Facebook?

Well, not total strangers. But they do on Twitter. And people I don’t know very well. Friends of friends. Someone told me I missed my calling.

Writing things on Facebook that people laugh at isn’t exactly a calling.

Not a very good one, anyway. Maybe they are trying to say that I have a small talent in a very small niche area. That knocks a bit of the good feeling out of it. It’s like I’m the patron saint of knick-knacks instead of mercy or something really awesome.

What’s wrong with knick-knacks?

Can we go back and try this conversation again? I really don’t like the way it’s going.

Sure.

Isn’t it strange how many people think I’m funny now?

Not at all. They are all just realizing how wonderful you are! I have always known.

Better. Thanks for humoring me.

What? It’s pure truth. Cross my heart.

I hope you don’t die.
