Job-Oriented

Arielle (to Rick): "You would be a very poor social worker."

Rick (to Arielle): "You would be a very poor accountant."

Both laugh.

How It Began...

A few years ago, I started keeping little scrap papers of sarcastic/hilarious/ridiculous conversations my husband had with me. I jokingly called them "Conversations with an Ass." Soon, he adopted this phrasing as well and I collected quite a hefty manila envelope of these small bits of dialogue. I told him I was going to start a blog and he didn't mind (since he's actually quite proud of his ass-isms much of the time), so here we are. Sometimes the things he says are endearing. Sometimes they're just plain funny. But most of the time, they're just conversations with an ass.
