Talk to Mr. Hand



This hilariously earnest article suggests that single men take a hand puppet into bars with them in order to meet women by making them laugh. Yeah, they're gonna laugh all right...at this guy's hair.

"Move your puppet up and down ... just as if the puppet was really talking."

I don't even know where to begin with that.

Yeah, that article's just so wrong in so many ways.

The text looks as though it's written in Standard English, but it seems to have been written in Martian and translated by Venerian machines. It almost makes me want to go to a nightclub and wait watching for somebody to try this guy's advice on somebody else. The aftermath will be up and down.

Thanks for pointing that out, Jim. I was so focused on how ludicrous this whole handpuppet idea is, that I completely missed how mercilessly he's torturing the English language.
