“For your birthday, I got you a box. Hooray! It’s empty, so you can fill it with whatever you want.”
“I got you a birthday present. The box is the exact same size as a coffin.”
“In my closet I have boxes and boxes of secrets. These boxes are all empty, and that’s how you know they’re filled with secrets.”
“I know it’s not your birthday, but would you like some birthday dick? It’s on sale today.”
“You were the best birthday present I ever got.""Thank you.""I wanted to give you something back, but I've got to warn you that it's not half as good as my present. Even so, you have to keep it.""All right."He draped the pink bow around his neck and grinned. "Happy birthday, Rosebud.”
“Enough small empty boxes thrown into a big empty box fill it full.”
