The 2010 Twins Memes Go to a Restaurant


(SCENE: an upscale restaurant in the western suburbs of Minneapolis.  LITTLE NICKY PUNTO, CARL PAVANO'S MUSTACHE, THE FUTILE BRENDAN HARRIS, KIRBY THE KESTREL and JIM THOME enter the restaurant.  The concierge greets them.)

CONCIERGE: Good evening, gentlemen.  Table for five, yes?

LNP: Yes! 

(LNP slides headfirst into concierge, knocking him senseless.)

HARRIS: Nick, what the hell?

LNP: Gotta show intensity, get to the table no matter what!  GET MONEY GET PAID LNP!  Why do you think I got that embroidered on this sweet-ass satin jacket?  (LNP turns to show the back of his sweet-ass satin jacket, which does indeed have "Get Money Get Paid LNP" sewn in cursive script across the shoulders.)

PAVSTACHE: I like your style, kid.  Used to have a coat like that back when I was pitching rookie ball.  Broads couldn't resist.  I tell you, the getaway sticks on this one redhead... 

KIRBY: CAW CHIRP!  CHIRP!

LNP: Hey guys, guys!  Table for five right there LET'S GO.

(They walk/fly/slide to the table.  On the way, HARRIS trips on his untied shoelace, falls into a table and causes a platter of sizzling hot fajitas to horribly burn a family of four.)

HARRIS: Oops.  Umpire probably untied it.  Friggin' blue.  Sorry.

(The Twins memes take their seats. A waiter approaches.)

WAITER: Hello, sirs, my name is Max and I'll be serving you this evening.  Would you like to hear about our specials?

JT: NO.  JIMJAM MASHES TATERS ALL DAY, BUT HE WANTS A BLOOMIN ONION TONIGHT, WITH SAUCES FOR DIPPING.

WAITER: We don't have that item on our menu, sir.

JT: THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

WAITER: Sorry, sir, but I think that's at the Outback Steakhouse.

JT: ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS SOAK AN ONION IN WATER, COAT IT IN BATTER, POP IT IN THE DEEP FAT FRYER, AND JIMJAM HAS A BLOOMIN ONION.  GET ONE TO SOAKING, I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE.

WAITER: I will see what the kitchen staff can do.

JT: SEE THAT YOU DO. 

WAITER: And for--sir, you can't smoke in here.

(PAVSTACHE is smoking an unfiltered Lucky Strike.)

PAVSTACHE: Listen, Jennifer...

WAITER: It's Max, sir, my name is Max.

PAVSTACHE: OK, Mary, the thing is, some days you just need a heater to relax before, during and after meals. 

WAITER: That's fine, sir, but I'm going to have to ask you to do so outside in our designated smoking area.

PAVSTACHE: Alright, whatever,  Either way, get me a steak, bloody as hell, and some black coffee in a paper cup.  I'm gonna go smoke.

(PAVSTACHE adjusts the wide-knotted tie on his short-sleeve dress shirt, throws his rumpled, brown sports coat over his shoulder, and goes outside.)

KIRBY: CHIRP!  CHIRP CAW!

WAITER: Pardon me?

KIRBY: CHIRP!  CHIRP CAW!

WAITER: I don't understand.

LNP: He wants a plate of worms with a side of crickets, dude.

WAITER: Oh.  I can't say that that's something we offer, either.

KIRBY: CHIRP!  CAW CHIRP CHIRP!

LNP: Escargot, then.  Snails GET YOU INTENSE!

KIRBY: CAW!

WAITER: alright, escargot it is, then.  And for you, sir?

LNP: pitcher of Red Bull, some eye black, and sunflower seeds.  GET MONEY.

WAITER: none of those things are on our menu.

LNP: there's a Super America across the parking lot, right?

WAITER: yes.

LNP: I'M GETTING AFTER IT. 

(LNP leaves table, slides headfirst out the nearest door.)

WAITER: And you, sir?

(HARRIS opens menu, the metal tip on the corner flies into the WAITER'S right eye, causes him to stumble backwards into the kitchen and starts a flash fire.  The restaurant burns to the ground.   Gardy blames Danny Valencia.)

Oh my god.

Seriously. I can’t quite believe how geniuis this is. I love the character of Pavstache.

A question

Was Pavstache modeled after what you imagine Jim Leyland was like as a younger man?

by Dave MN on Jun 25, 2010 9:06 AM EDT reply actions  

More like a ‘70s police detective who is six months from retiring. (Which isn’t that far from what I imagine Jim Leyland to be like.)

This was very Bat Girlesque

Which is a way of saying that I liked it.

Seriously

That’s one of the nicest things anyone could say about anyone’s writing, and I do appreciate it.

the tone’s there. The Harris character is dead on.

Perfect. We needed some comedy here.

random:

I wonder how Santana’s wife feels about him cheating (unless they’re divorced now). Sucks that he goes that route along with a lot of other athletes.

I just lost respect for the dude though.

I could see each moment playing out in my head like I was there

Especially Brendan Harris burning that innocent family. Poor people.

Seriously, this will be in our top ten posts by the end of the year.

Great Stuff

A cop movie with Pavstache and LNP as partners would be a Hollywood gold mine

Awesome...

Great job

Hope you post more like this…great laugh for the night…I’m not laughing much as I watch the Mets beating the Twins…although Slowey is STILL pitching and it’s the FIFTH!! Gardy might have found out the Harris sent the metal flying….and shipped him to AAA.

You have no idea how hard this made me laugh.
