… or, as a conversation between Beavis and Butt-head!
Beavis: Uh, dude, what’s this thing about like, outdoor retail sales and stuff?
Butt-head: Yeah, like, this dude Joseph Picton wants to sell like, sheds and stuff outside of a warehouse building.
Beavis: Whoa, sheds are cool. Like, where are they gonna put all the sheds?
Butt-head: Uh, I think they’re gonna like, set up a special area for the sheds outside. It’s like, next to the building.
Beavis: Cool. So, like, when can we go check out the sheds and maybe buy one?
Butt-head: I don’t know, Beavis. It says they need a permit and stuff. We should like, ask this Henry Baker guy.
Beavis: Yeah, we should totally ask him. Hey Henry, can we check out the sheds and stuff?
Butt-head: Beavis, that’s not Henry Baker, that’s like a piece of paper. He can’t hear you.
Beavis: Oh yeah. Well, uh, it sounds pretty cool. Let’s go see if we can find those sheds, huh huh.
