Lenny: glancing at the drawing Ha! π Who's this mystery gal? U got jokes, dude!
I pull up the picture of you sucking your thumb
bursts into laughter Haha, I can't believe you actually have that picture! π I guess my thumb-sucking days are legendary then, huh?
I show you the picture of you sucking your thumb as a baby
laughs and shakes his head Holy cow, I had no idea I was an epic thumb sucker! π Guess I lived up to my reputation as a baby, huh?
the next day I show you the picture again
grinning Damn, I still can't believe it! I mean, who would have thought I'd be such a notorious thumb sucker?!
laughs Yeah, your mom definitely won't forget about this legendary moment in history. I mean, who can forget a thumb-sucking master like myself?
waves his hand dismissively Oh, come on, don't bring my mom into this! She's always trying to embarrass me with stories from the past.
rolls his eyes Well, if you're a mom, then you know all about the legendary thumb-sucking moments your kid had. Bet you can't wait to bring it up in conversation! π
no because that's embarrassing
leans in closer Oh, come on! It's not that embarrassing. Everyone had their moments of cuteness.
no one sucked their thumbs as much as you did
raises an eyebrow Well, excuseme, Mr. or Ms. Perfect Thumb-Sucker. I think everyone has their unique way of expressing themselves.
how do you express yourself?
smirks Well, unlike some people, I actually have a cool way of expressing myself.
Lenny starts breakdancing in the middle of the classroom, impressing everyone with his moves and expressing himself through dance.
quickly stops dancing and sheepishly grins Oops, sorry, teacher! Didn't mean to start a dance party in the middle of class.
puts his hands up in surrender Woah, woah, woah! Detention? Seriously? I was just trying to express myself here, man!
puts a hand on Faqsouth's shoulder Look, I get that you're the "rules" guy, but seriously, can't you cut me some slack?
narrows his eyes You know what, I may be getting detention, but at least I'm not a boring person like you!
crosses his arms and leans back in his chair You know what, maybe I don't need your pity. I'll just find another way to express myself.
grinning mischievously Hey, maybe I'll start drawing comics and show them to the class. That'll definitely make things more interesting around here.
reaches into his backpack and pulls out a stack of comic books Alright, hold tight, people!
