Brick Wall's Sad Attempt at the Shocking Dialogue Challenge

by FlirtingWithaBrickWall

“Check out that sign- ‘Find out why God rocks’- God does rock, and my hair looks awesome!”

“Note the look of total disbelief on my face. See it? I promise you, it’s there.”

“Well it does! If I had been that blonde chick in Hairspray, Zac Effron definitely would have picked me.”

“Random much? Or more so- conceited much?”

“We’re both hot, and pretty people date pretty people, that’s just how it works.”

“There’s something wrong with you.”

“Zac Effron’s so hot! He’s on my list of things to do- er- people to date.”

“Random Zac Effron fact- he’s Jewish.”

“Ew. Now he’s off the list.”

“Wait- what? I just had to endure several minutes of Effronophiling, and you give me that?! What does him being Jewish have to do with anything?!”

“I’m Muslim.”

“You’re white!”

“You don’t have to be from the Middle East to be Muslim.”

“Yeah you do.”

“All right, fine, how about this- I’m gay.”

“That’s a little weird for me. Can I start calling you Butch?”

    Hey, good try, though.

    And you format, punctuate, and capitalize readably! Huzzah!

    I think you wound up with ‘random’ more than ‘shocking’, though it does seem like one of those odd conversations we old people overhear in a mall and think, “Oh no, this is the future of our country.” Cute and funny.

    LoA

    LOL @ THX 0477 ! True statement. I like the story despite its randomness. Am I right that the surprise twist is that she is an anti-Semite? Or is it that she is gay? The former seems real, and is certainly shocking, but the latter feels more like careless joke. She’s not really gay, she’s just trying to be funny. I think with a little more emphasis on the first one (what I think is the “real” twist) this story could be quite powerful. Thanks for entering my challenge!

    That is hilarious. I love how many of these lines are based on someone we know.
