“Hey buddy, was you the one ordered the octopus?”
“Yeah, that’s right!”
“We don’t get that order too often. What’s the occasion?”
“Today is my lucky day! I turned over a new leaf. I just won a hundred bucks on a scratch ticket. I been playing for years and it finally paid off! I always says to myself if I won something, I was gonna eat octopus by the docks, and here I am!”
“Well good for you, pal! Anything else?”
“Yeah, bring me a Bud Light and a piece of toast.”
“Sure thing, pal. You just live it up, my friend.”
