Fudge: Hey there, boss! Can I ask you something?
Me: Sure, Fudge, what’s up?
Fudge: Not much, since the operation. You know that.
Me: You know, I meant to say “How are you? What’s doing? That sort of thing.”
Fudge: People are such obfuscating creatures.
Me: I didn’t know that word.

Fudge: You should read more. It means you are purposefully unclear.
Me: I wish you’d quit teaching me English. What is on your canine mind?
Fudge: Hot dog. Why do people call them hot dogs?
Me: I don’t think that anyone knows.
Fudge: They don’t look anything like dogs hot or cold.

Me: Right you are.
Fudge: Can I have one?
Me: No. Is that all?
Fudge: No. What I really wanted to know was where my name comes from. Who gave me my given name? You?
Me: Well it comes from the word “Fudge”. Your colour reminded us of fudge.

Fudge: My fur colour? Isn’t fudge more like dark brown?
Me: Yes, but there are other categories other than chocolate.
Fudge: And that’s it? You’re not being less than truthful with me, are you?

Me: Well…
Fudge: Well?
Me: Well there was the consistency thingie.
Fudge: Consistency of what?
Me: Well, you know…what one does…
Fudge: You mean excrement? You called me after my own crap?
Me: It was a secondary.

Fudge: Let me tell you something. I can smell your shit for miles. Your so exasperating!
Me: Is that all?
Fudge: I’ll give you a reason to call me Fudge!!
Me: What are you doing? You’re taking a crap here on my new shag carpet!!!
Fudge: Exactly. Now you can go fudge yourself.
