life imitates Onion

G: (back from store, and rack of tabloids, I reckon) Remember the other day when I said I'd read someone was trying to cast Paris Hilton in a serious role, but I couldn't remember what it was?

Me: Yeah, I do...why, did you remember?

G: You won't believe me

Me: That bad, huh?

G: So bad, it hurts to say. It's physically painful.

Me: What...like Checkov? (shudder) Oh god.

G: Worse.

Me: Worse?!!

G: Much worse. The lead role in the life story of...I'm telling you, you won't believe me

Me: Try me

G: Mother Teresa

Me: Mother Teresa? The four foot tall, celibate, lifetime of poverty, Saint Mother Teresa? You're lying. No one is...who would...you're lying.
