Two Drizzlers
Nigel Burwood
You are the kind of person who will buy an olive oil drizzler.
I am the kind of person who wonders what kind of person
would even contemplate such a purchase.
He has contempt for the drizzler, for you and for me.
They couldn't care less.
On second thoughts I'll take one.
That's two drizzlers.
