They're building a desk.
They don't know why I'm laughing at them.

- See, I found both holes without even looking.
- A little to the right...aw yeah, keep it right there.
- I had it like that before, but it stuck out too much.
- It's not long enough. I have an extender at home.
- While you're down there, d'ya see that thing hanging down?
- Just jam it in there, it'll get wider.

Me: Fish don't have snouts.
Greg: Porkfish do.
Me: Nope. And pigs don't have gills.
Greg: Well, no. I don't know why you even needed to point that out.
