JEFF: WHAT DID YOU DO AFTER THE PAUSE?
STEVE: WELL, THE PAUSE GOT OUT OF CONTROL.
JEFF: YOU KEPT PAUSING?!
STEVE: IT GOT AWAY FROM ME.
STEVE: AT FIRST, IT WAS JUST A NORMAL PAUSE, A COLLECT-YOUR-THOUGHTS PAUSE.
JEFF: THAT’S PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE.
STEVE: BUT THEN THEN I THOUGHT ABOUT THE PAUSE.AND NOW THE PAUSE IS TOO LONG TO IGNORE!
JEFF: YEAH, THE PAUSE IS LIKE A WHOLE THIRD PERSON IN THE CONVERSATION.

STEVE: RIGHT, THANKS.
JEFF: IT EATS PEOPLE! AND IN THE END THEY KILL IT BY ELECTROCUTION.BUT THAT BIT DOESN’T REALLY APPLY HERE.
STEVE: ANYWAY, I’VE GOT THE PHONE IN MY HAND AND I’M SAYING NOTHING.
JEFF: RIGHT.
STEVE: NO, NOTHING! NOTHING IS COMING INTO MY HEAD! I HAVE FORGOTTEN IN ONE MOMENT OF EMBARRASSMENT THE ENTIRE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.
JEFF: I HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS!
STEVE: I CAN FEEL MY HAIR SWEATING! OH, GOD, YEAH.
