[SCRIPT] Webcams 12 06/01/2010
Just playing catch-up here. Since I had to cancel my plans for the "personal" Webcams story line, I had to move forward quickly with this next script. As such, the parts are mostly cast, but I still want to post it for interested parties (and posterity). Read it after the break. WEBCAMS (12) -- Facts, Opinions, and Assholes written by: Billo Better than TV Krumbine Characters A B C A Hey. B Well hey there-- A (interrupting) You know, the opinionated are the most annoying people in the world. B Awesome, I didn't feel like finishing my sentence anyway. A Seriously, people with opinions should just get lost. I don't care what your views on religion are and I CERTAINLY don't care what you think about government, capitalism, or socialism! B I could probably say anything right now and you wouldn't even hear ... A Just live your life! What's the point of having an opinion about something if it's just going to infuriate your peers? B I sometimes think about stealing a boat. Or a scooter. Just cause. A Opinions make you biased, and that's a fact. B If I stole a boat, I'd ride down river, and meet a gentle hermit named Richard. With the scooter, I think I'd jump twelve homeless people with it. A And if you keep on living life opinionated, you'll end up like Bill Maher. Is that what people REALLY want? C Sorry to interrupt, but I just had to point this out: do you have any idea how ironic it is that you're so damn opinionated about other people's opinions? I mean, really. A Ha! Whatever. I am not opinionated about ANYTHING. I live my life based on facts and facts alone. C Which in and of itself is an opinion. A What?! C (shrugs) It is. A It's not an opinion! It's FACT. C Maybe a factual opinion. Or an opinionated fact. But definitely not a cut and dry fact. B I killed the family shitzu and told the children it was stolen by immigrants. A ... C ... B Of all the times for you two to start paying attention to me, it had to have been then. C See, the fact of the matter is that that was a crazy thing to say. However, crazy is, by definition, subjective, so it can't really be more than an a opinionated fact. A Hey, buddy? C Yes? A (angry, yelling) FACT YOU! TITLES A Brontology ... C Bront-what? B Brontology? A (nods) Yes, that’s right. B What about it? C What IS it? A I’m so glad you asked. C Why do I have a hard time believing that? A Maybe because you're an opinionated fool? C Why am I talking to you again? B Brontology. C That's not what I meant, you brontosaur. B Ooh, is brontology the study of dinosaurs? A My opinion is that the fact that you are an idiot is correct. C See: right there. A fact can't be wrong. It wouldn't be called a fact, then! A I never said it wasn't a fact! C You said that the fact was correct, which implies that there was a chance of it being incorrect, thereby making the entire statement an opinion, no matter how you try an dress it up!!! B Can I ask a question? A What?! C What?! B What the hell's brontology? A (abrupt) It's the study of thunder! B Thunder? C That's a fact. A You're face is a fact! B How did they come up with Brontology as the name for the study of thunder? A (rubs forehead) I don't want to talk about this anymore. C Ah, but that's just your opinion. A I will opinionize your ass into next Tuesday if you don't shut it! C First you're facting me and now you're opinionizing me? You should really make up you mind. B I think I know a fact that maybe you guys don’t know. C Oh, really? A Please, shut up! B A dog was killed by a meteor in Nakhla Egypt, in 1911. C Huh. Really? I did not know that fact. B (grinning) Oh, I'm not finished yet! C There's more? B That unlucky canine in Egypt was-- A The only known creature to have been killed by a meteor. B Oh, hey! How did you know that?! A Factually speaking, I’m a fountain of factual knowledge. And that's no opinion. C You should really put on a jacket or something. A Why? C Your opinions are showing. B Okay, how about this? What unusual plant can you make paper out of, other than the obvious? A Asparagus. C (annoyed) Really?! B How did you ... C You're googling these, aren't you? B (frustrated look) A cosmic year is the amount of time it takes the sun to revolve around the center of the milky way. About how many years is that? A About 225 million years. B AAAH!!! Alfred Nobel of Sweden patented dynamite in what year? A 1867. C This is just sad. B How many Model T Fords were manufactured all in black? A Fifteen million, seven hundred thousand and three. C That’s a lot of Model T’s. A Model T Fords. C OKAY! B What other animal prints can not be distinguished from human fingerprints? A The koala bear. B Oh, come on!!! Theres got to be something you don’t know. A There is nothing I don't know for *I* am all-knowing. B Okay-okay-okay. In Greek culture, brides carry a lump of sugar in their wedding glove. Why? A (shrugs) Its supposed to bring sweetness to their married life. B When was the yo-yo first introduced? A 1929 by Donald F Duncan. B Dammit! A The toy was actually based on a weapon used by the 16th century Filipino hunters. C Okay, how about this, Captain Smart-sicle. What are the names of Popeye’s four nephews? A (confused) What? C Popeye's four nephews. Go, you facting genius. B You have three seconds 1 ... 2 ... A (actually stumped) Uhhh. B 3! HA! Pipeye, Peepeye, Pupeye and Poopeye. C And we have a winner! A Uh-huh. No. Once again, we bear witness to the rearing of the ugly head of the opinion. C It was the right answer! A (infuriated) The last name he said was "Poopeye"! C That was one of the names. A This is lunacy ... B No lunacy is a term referring to mental illness. Stemming from the prefex luna. A term left over from ancient times when the moon was thought to cause insanity and mental problems. C Hey, you won't believe it, but theres a full moon tonight. B That explains SO much! A (sarcastic) Ah-hah-hah. So funny. (turns off cam) B Do you think he's going crazy from the full moon? C (chuckles) It's very possible, my friend, very possible. B Really? C Of course not, Poopeye, I’m kidding. Hey, see you next time. B See ya later. (turns off cam) C (smiles and turns off cam) END CommentsLeave a Reply | Seminal Works are for PornstarsOne man's quest to stay creative. Support the cause! Buy some swag!
