The Pain Cuts Deep

“How about we watch A Knight’s Tale tonight? I liked that movie,” Annette says.

“No, we can’t watch that,” Paige says, “The main character is dead. It’s just too painful to watch. Why don’t we watch This Is It instead?”

“He’s dead, too!” I cry. “We can’t watch that, either!”

“What about Clueless? We could watch that!” Adam suggests.

“Brittany Murphy’s dead, too!” Dana laments.

“I know,” I say, “How about we watch old OxiClean infomercials?”

The entire group wails in agony.

“I had to throw out three tubs of the stuff,” Ron says, “It reminded me too much of him!”
