A few days ago, Karl decided to sit down and watch Elton John live in concert on the TV, in hopes that he might get to see him perform "Don't Go Breakin' My Heart" with Kiki Dee. Anyways, I wanted to tell Karl a funny joke I had learned earlier that day. It was about penguins. I walked in front of the TV so as to gain his attention, but Karl wouldn't let me tell the joke. He got very angry and threatened to "break my skull" if I didn't "lay off of Elton" and get out of the way to "let the man perform his [expletive] songs". Needless to say, the joke was never told. Karl got over his anger in a few hours, although he still reminds me about me forcing him to miss a rousing performance of "Crocodile Rock". Sorry, Karl. |
