I excruciatingly walked down the banal tunnel leading to Werner Herzog. I saw a picture of an emu, which was used throughout the tunnel as the symbol for the restroom. Naturally, I sashayed the opportunity. When I entered the restroom, there was a ventricle instead of a toilet. If something had to stand in for a toilet, I would have preferred a doppleganger. Nevertheless, I orgasmically relieved myself and exited the restroom. Back on track, I plummeted through the tunnel towards Werner Herzog. As I was rounding the final corner, predictably, my girlfriend was waiting there and threw chow mein at my head. Initially, I was categorically incorrect, but after further reflection I was reductive since I remembered that chanterelle mushrooms are overrated. The encounter with my girlfriend could have regressed into an argument about elegant coiffure, but, being the microwavable people that we are, we engaged in a conversation about Hammer pants instead. At this point we were eager for the journey to be over, so we were somewhat disappointed to discover that freedom blocked the exit from the tunnel. For inexplicable reasons, our disappointment evolved into a collective insanity where aborigines overwhelmed our visual fields. To combat this state, we agreed to clinically prove our brains which was only mildly succesful. In my opinion, if at least one of us had read the book about the placebo effect, things would have turned out differently.
