Dialogue of the pill-disposers . . .

Blithe Spirit 1 Minute

He to she: I have these pills I’ll be getting rid of. Shelf date violation.

She: Put them here (pointing to garbage).

He: Not the toilet?

She: No. Then they pollute the water supply.

He: My excrement doesn’t pollute the water supply?

She, heading for door: OK. I’m on my way.

Kiss, departure.
