"Okay, we need a name for this one, too."

"Bushtit."

[Sigh] "Fine. And this one?"

[Snickering] "Blue footed booby."

"Ugh, but why?."

"It's got blue feet."

"Whatever. How about this one?"

"Titmouse."

"I think I'm starting to see a pattern here. Is everything okay at home?"

[Bursts into tears] "No! Not since this one." [Hands other person a photo] "I call that one 'horrible shrew that ruined my life!'" [Sobbing]
