[Afternoon. Summer leaching out of the sunlit sky. Palinode and Schmutzie are hungry.]
Schmutzie: We should go for lunch.
Palinode: Agreed. We should lunch.
Schmutzie: People don't use meals for verbs much these days. Breakfast, supper.
Palinode: Sure they do. For example, "Yo, 'sup" means "Hi there. Eat supper".
Schmutzie: No it does not.
Palinode: It's a timely reminder for an evening meal baked right into a greeting. Very efficient discourse.
Schmutzie: Not even close:
Palinode: ...
Palinode: It's Spanish.
Schmutzie: SHUT UP.

It's true, Schmutzie. And "Yo, bra" means, "Hello there, good sir! Care to join me in shopping for a manzierre?"
I'm with Schmutzie. What sushi dish did you arrive on?
