\nSubject: My Big Speech<\/p>\n
Poppy \u2013<\/p>\n
You know I\u2019ve got that big speech coming up tonight. I\u2019m a little nervous, but nothing a few shots from that bottle you left in the desk won\u2019t fix. Ha ha.<\/p>\n
Anyways, I\u2019m trying out a few real dandy phrases to kinda get everyone\u2019s attention. You know, like last year with that \u201cAxis of Evil\u201d. Everybody\u2019s still talkin about it, and it sure made me look pretty smart cause two of those countries have turned out to be really really evil since then. (I don\u2019t
\nknow *what\u2019s* going on in that third country though.)<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s some of the phrases I\u2019m thinking of using, and I want you to tell me what you think of them:<\/p>\n
\u201cAXIS OF EVILER\u201d (see above)
\n\u201cAXIS OF WEASELS\u201d (Democrats)
\n\u201cEXCESS OF EVIL\u201d (Liberals)
\n\u201cAXIS OF AFL\u201d (Labor Unions)
\n\u201cAXIS OF AWFUL\u201d (Rap music)
\n\u201cAXIS OF EVEL\u201d (Kneivel)
\n\u201cAXIS OF FEEBLE\u201d (those pantywaist Euros, like France and Germany)<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] Yeah, what do they know about war?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cACCENTS OF EVIL\u201d (France and Germany again)<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] Especially the Germans. Brrrr!!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cAXIS OF EIFFEL\u201d (France)
\n\u201cAXIS OF WAFFLE\u201d (Belgium. That\u2019s in France, right?)<\/p>\n[“Poppy”] Check with Laura.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cEX-SPOUSE OF EVIL\u201d<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] Better check with Laura on that one, too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cEXHAUST OF EVIL\u201d (Pollution from fossil fuels. Ha ha, just kidding!)<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] You little stinker!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cAXES OF EVIL\u201d (Loggers. Just kidding again!)<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] Okay Junior, get serious.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cNO NEW AXIS!\u201d<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] I like the sound of that!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cFOOL ME ONCE, SHAME ON \u2026 SHAME ON ME, CAN\u2019T GET FOOLED AGAIN!\u201d<\/p>\n
[“Poppy”] No no, I keep telling you. It\u2019s \u201cFooling with me once is no fooling around again\u201c. No wait \u2026 \u201cYou can fool me once, but twice is a shame!\u201d No wait\u2026<\/p>\n
Ah hell, Georgie, just say what you want and remember to pause every 30 seconds so everyone can clap.<\/p>\n
Knock \u2018em dead, son!<\/p>\n
