My messed up Ian dream
January 14th, 2008
So I had a dream last night and I went with Friya to visit Ian.
We were surprised when we got there, because he hadn’t mentioned to us that he actually lived in a big blue prison in New York. So Friya went shopping and I went back to his cell (it was obviously quite a slack prison because they let him out for long walks) and I looked through all his drawers.
Then we went out again and on the way back in there was a wheelbarrow full of corn on the cob sitting in the corridor. Ian didn’t want to steal one, because it’s generally frowned upon for prisoners to do that, but I really wanted one so I stuck it in my trousers and we went back to the room. But Ian didn’t know I’d done it. Then I thought it would get him into trouble, so I went up a spiral staircase to a different floor (it was a boys floor -Â every other one was a girls floor – but luckily the spiral staircase I went up missed a floor on the way) and casually dropped the corn cob on the floor.
When I got back to the cell, it was full of prison wardens, and one evil woman (who was English despite this being a New York jail) was telling us off for laughing too much and reminding Ian that it was a five-strikes and you’re out policy. She pointed above the door, where someone had painted (in elaborate lettering) “One and a half strikes”.
Then I woke up.

Every other floor was a girl’s floor? Hmmm interesting, your mind works in frivilous ways 😀

Did I mention that, in a cartoon style, the weather above the prison was always thunder and lightning? Everywhere else we went was quite nice and sunny. But the prison was like the castle in Trap Door, meteorologically at least.

So acutally it was less like a prison and mor like a travelodge in Milton Keynes?
*shudders at the memories*

Whatever, I’m still interested in the fact that I’m stuck in a prison full of girls 😀
Generally I try not to steal corn on the cobs because I feel a vegetable with too much words to it isn’t worth it.

This is quite true. 17% of the energy and nutrition you gain from eating corn on the cob is actually cancelled out by the lengthy process of saying its name.

Stick that in your QI and smoke it, Stephen Fry!
(Please don’t, you’re smart and I really admire you)
Yeah. You heard me.
