Inappropriate Punchlines for Inappropriate Times; or, Tails, a one-act play

Scene: The Internet, circa 2006

Two
BLOGS passing the time in a place without any visible character.

One is well dressed--hats, cloaks, sticks and all.

The other is slipshod.

Each of them has a large leather bag of smarts.


THUMB DRIVES AND OVEN CLOCKS's bag is nearly empty.

CROOKED TIMBER's bag is nearly full.

CT sits. TDAOC stands.

CT: Was Foucault a closet Habermasian?

TDAOC: Oh...SNAP!

The play fades out, overtaken by dark and music.

Hm.

Blogs as characters.

Hm.
