Life is a bore

Characters: Girl called Kitty, Guy called Andrew and Me.
Background: A living room

Kitty: Am bored
Andrew: Thats nice
Me: [smirk]
Kitty [ignoring all this]: Its not my fault, thats the way life is
Andrew: Yes yes bad life. Having the nerve to be boring
Me: [smirk]
Kitty: Would you cut that out Ann!
Me: [Attempting to wipe off smirk, ends up guffawing]
Kitty [Back to ignoring me]: You people are not serious about this! One day when you are 40 you will regret
Andrew: Err what?
Me: That we didnt say life was a bore
Andrew and me: [Combined guffawing]
Kitty: Ok its next to impossible but let me try pour some sense into you clowns
Andrew and me: [Still at it]
Kitty: What have you two bright little monsters achieved so far in life?
Andrew: [raising hand]
Kitty [sighing]: Go on
Andrew: Education. I scored I scored
Kitty: Education. What good is that if it only teaches you to act like a bafoon.
Andrew: Hmph
Me: Friends
Kitty: Thanks for thinking Ann. But that doesnt count. You guys are talking about profitless gains. I am not asking for monetory gains but something beyond this emm
Andrew: Moneyless stuff?
Kitty: Yea... say if your education took you to NASA or the business world like TATA or at least to the creative world of the likes of Rowling there was a point. But you guys are going to end up working in boring boring jobs.. Good for noone, defnitely not good for you
Me: All jobs are boring?
Kitty: O'course. Do you think those guys you see walking around in ties and tags are having fun in there?
Andrew: Alright so whats your plan?
Kitty: My plan?
Andrew: Yeah what are you going to do about this sad state of affairs?
Me: Yeah what Kitty?
Kitty: Absolutely nothing
Me: Hah?
Kitty: I am just a brooder. I find out these things. Its not up to me to act.
Andrew: You mean the way you bring meaning to life, profitable gains, is by finding out everyday that life is not worth living?
Kitty: It is. Its just boring.
Andrew: You know what Kitty, I am dropping my MBA plans. I am joining you!
Kitty: You are?
Andrew: Of course it is so much more interesting, the path you chose in life!
Kitty: Err
Me: Me too me too
Kitty: You too what?
Me: I wanna do nothing in life too. I want to be a brooder.
Kitty: Ok smart guys. Enough. Cant a girl sit and brood an afternoon on life and its misorganized ways without 2 dumboes like you wrecking it!
Andrew: I am serious.
Me: I am starting already. Life is such a bore. It is such an agony
Andrew: Its a pain in the neck. It pounces on you when you least expect it
Me: And eat you up. On the other hand when you look at it expecting, waiting
Andrew: It turns its ugly back on you and leave you with nothing
Me: Absolutely nothing
Kitty [trying to get out some words in between clenched teeth and red face finally ends up guffawing]
Andrew: Look who is not serious now
Me: I can just see the day 20 years later when she is going to regret this childish act
Andrew: Mmph
Me: Mmph
[Group guffaw]
