Blarg and Flarg

This one might be a good children's cartoon. Or something good to throw away. It's a meek start to the month.

The Adventures of Blarg and Flarg

Blarg and Flarg are two gelatinous-looking alien creatures sitting on their small planet's surface.

BLARG
Flarg, there's nothing left to do on our home planet of Glarg. I think we've done everything there is to do here.

FLARG
You're probably right, Blarg. Maybe we should finally visit another planet like we've always talked about.

BLARG
But Flarg, how would we get there? And how do we know we could survive? Their planet dust may not be safe to eat like ours. We'd probably end up staying there for four million years and then we'll run out of things to do again, just like here on Glarg.

FLARG
You're right. Wherever you go, that's where you are. Besides, we don't have a spaceship or a map or any idea how far away the other planets really are.

BLARG
I suppose we'll have to start over with all the things we've done in the last 4 million years here on Glarg. Surely it will still be interesting to eat dust from the other side of the planet, play Shlarg, and sing the notes of our chakras again.

FLARG
Okay, Blarg. It is our only option, really.

BLARG
As I recall it took one Glargorian year to get to the other side of the planet, so we should get started on our journey to try the other planet dust now.

FLARG
Yes, let's go.

Flarg and Blarg begin slowly moving as one might imagine gelatinous blobs would move. Suddenly there's an explosion.

Blackout

Lights up and Blarg and Flarg are wearing white robes/sheets.

FLARG
Well, Blarg, this is something completely new and different, isn't it?

BLARG
Yes, Flarg. But how long do you think it will take for us to run out of things to do before eternity ends?!

Blarg and Flarg mug to audience.

Ba-duh, duh, duh, duh, duh....duh!
