You know that stuff that they're selling now at the local
shop?
|
B.
|
Which stuff?
|
A.
|
"I can't believe it's not butter!"
|
B.
|
Hmm. Oh, yes.
|
A.
|
Well, you know, I can't believe it's not butter.
|
B.
|
Well, yes, I believe that IS the idea.
|
A.
|
Then yesterday I went to the grocery, and I bought this other
stuff, like a home brand.
|
B.
|
Yessssss.
|
A.
|
And, you know, I can't believe it's not "I can't believe it's
not butter!"
|
B.
|
Hmmm. I'm losing you now.
|
A.
|
Well... you know "I can't believe it's not butter!"
|
B.
|
Yes, yes. You think it IS butter.
|
A.
|
No... no. I mean, you know the stuff that I can't believe is
not butter is called "I can't believe it's not butter!"
|
B.
|
Probably, yes... Yes!
|
A.
|
Well, I can't believe that stuff that is NOT "I can't believe
it's not butter!" is not "I can't believe it's not butter!" And I can't believe
that both the stuff that IS "I can't believe it's not butter!" AND the stuff
that is NOT "I can't believe it's not butter" are both in fact not butter.
And... I believe they may in fact both BE butter... in a cunning disguise. And
in fact there's a lot more butter around that we all thought there
was.

B.
|
Yes... I see.
