Office guy: I brought bars.
Office gal: Special K?
Office guy: No, they're not Special K because they don't have Special K in them. They have Rice Krispies. They are way better then Special K bars. Cause Special K is corn, and these are rice.
Office gal: I thought you would bring shrimp.
Office guy: Yeah, I said that.
