The Siren's Call

"Alas, for mine mind has been tainted by the song of the Sirens!  You must tie me to this post, before it is too late... My desires already verge upon madness!"

"I'm not doing that."

"But you must!  Lest I be overwhelmed, and lead us all to ruin, dashing us upon the rocks of cruel fate!"

"I'm not tying you to a post, Chad."

"Fool!  Can you not see that our lives are in danger, from this inexorable temptation?!"  Chad pointed a trembling finger indicating something behind his companion, who turned to see what had consumed him.

"It's Lego Chad, you have lots."

"But this is Star Wars lego, from the new film! Verily our bank account will be like a fool's mind- present, but empty. Why do you run such risk!"

"Because we're in a toy store, and I'm not tying you to a pole across from some Lego.  Let's go." And he began to walk away.

"Okay but if you come home tomorrow and the house is full of Lego I'm not responsible." Chad said, following his compatriot out the door.

"Forsooth!  Cinnabon!" He shouted and ran off into the mall.
