Conversation With American God

  • God: (mumbling sleepily) uh... hello?
  • Me: Uhm, hey God, it's me... David
  • God: Dude, you can't keep calling me up like this, it's fucking 1 in the morning
  • Me: Oh...sorry, I called earlier but I got the busy tone, then it sent me to your voice mail, and you know I don't trust-
  • God: Well soooorry, I mean, Jesus Christ, there is another Six Billion of you, you know?
  • Me: Well yeah, but-
  • God: I mean, c'mon 'Help me win the lottery' 'Help me meet a nice jewish boy' 'Guide me in smiting the infidels' 'Help me make the right choice'. Seriously, I left you guys pretty well off: the opposable thumbs, discerning right and wrong... you'd think the whole 'Teach a man how to fish' thing would've gotten you off my back a little bit.
  • Me: Rough day, God?
  • God: *sigh* you have nooo fucking clue.
  • Me: But I mean really can you blame us for seeking some guidance?
  • God: And can you blame me for being a bit tired, I mean I create the universe I give you some rules so you guys are- wait why are you questioning me?, aren't you catholic?
  • Me: Aren't you all knowing?
  • God: *grunt* OK, so what do you need?
  • Me: What are you fucking Santa, now? I just wanted to see how you were doing...
  • God: Oh, well uhm...you know, I've been doing some stuff, making appearnces here and there, fuckin' with old bushy's head
  • Me: About that....
  • God: Hey, you elected him, I'm just having fun with it.
  • Me: *sigh*
  • God: Listen, I am dying of sleep, how about I call you in the morning?
  • Me: I have a test tomorrow morning.
  • God: Ok, you call me then...
  • Me: Promise you'll pick up?
  • God: *mutters* for the love of....Yes, I'll pick up
  • Me: 'Night God
