Highlander


Two men meet upon a desolate mountain top. They are both quite fearsome.

Man: I am the highlander!

Man2: I am the highlande-  Wait, realllly? You are the highlander? Are you sure?

Man: Yes, I am certain! I am the highlander!

Man2: You’re sure? How do you know?

Man: It is I who slayed the last highlander! There can only be one highlander, thus it is I!

Man2: Hm. Fuck. I could have sworn I killed the last highlander. Who did you kill?

Man: Stephen Vaughn!

Man2: No shit. I swear I killed Steven Vaughn. Tall guy, curly black hair, on the lanky side? I think he worked with computers?

Man: Hmm, nooo…he was this short stocky fellow with a red beard. Very distinct. A writer actually.

Man2: Well shit. I’m a bit confused then. I’ve been running around for the past month telling people that I’m the highlander. I kind of just assumed I was. How do you know you killed the right Steven Vaughn??

Man: He was carrying a massive sword and there was lightning all around him.

Man2: Is that where you got that sword then?

Man: Yup.

Man2: Shit, how did your Steven spell his name?

Man: S-T-E-P-H-E-N.

Man2: DAMMIT.

Man: Your guy with a—

Man2: V. Yeah. SHIT, I can’t believe I didn’t facebook him or something.

Man: Wow, so you just killed a random dude?

Man2: I think.

Man: Phew, that’s heavy stuff.

Man2: I’ll say.

A beat.

Man2: What am I going to tell my girlfriend?

Man: She thinks you’re the highlander?

Man2: Mm hm.

Man: Ouch.
