Chats with Steve: Kraft Awesome Straws

This is Chats with Steve, in which I copy and paste inane conversations I've had on Gmail chat with my buddy Steve.

me: I'm gonna visit my parents this weekend.

steve: sounds like a blast, dude

me: so blast
12:38 PM what's your blast today?
12:39 PM that's like the slogan for a commercial with kids riding skateboards with helmets and it's like a hi-c juicebox or something

steve: Kraft Awesome Straws -- What's Your Blast?

me: they are just things filled with cheese spread you suck out of individual straws

steve: yeah, they come in flavors like Mondo Cheddar

me: for a limited time: Extreme Brie

steve: Monterrey Jacked Up

me: Shutup! Swiss

steve: hahaha what's your blast

 steve: they'd have pop culture icons-themed products

 me: like No Doubt Nacho
12:50 PM: with gwen stefani on the straw

steve: yeah, and no doubt tours in support of the product, just replacing the lyrics of their old songs.
12:52 PM but none of it makes any sense. "i'm walking in an awesome straw. so leave a message and i'll call you back."

me: "This straw is so cheesy/C-H-E-E-S-Y!" 

I know that's solo Gwen, btw. I'm no fool.

steve: What's your blast?

me: we should do a radio commercial for these

steve: definitely

 me: Awesome Straws. What's YOUR Blast?

 steve: Bow Dunna Dunna Dun -- Awesome Straws. Wave of the Future. Suck Cheese in your Face!

Chats with Steve: On the Anniversary of Michael Jackson's Passing

casey: my coworker just walked by in a hurry, saying to himself, "Gotta get me out to my car to see if I have a Michael Jackson cd. It's the anniversary."

steve: haha

me: he died the day we were flying to Italy or our first day there?

steve: he died the day we landed, i believe

we left the US and therefore killed michael jackson

me: he missed us

so so much

so he died

steve: that's my understanding of the events, yes

me: maybe he missed us so much he wanted to die so he could float up through the clouds and pass our airplane and wave "hi, boys"

steve: oh yeah, i forgot we saw him on the wing of the plane

me: I thought it was odd that they let us bring that ouiji board on the plane

steve: and that sassy flight attendant said, "oh shit, who dyin' today, boys?"

me: and then we just pointed out the window and there was Jacko, just building a sandcastle, smiling.

steve: yeah, i can't believe all that actually happened

me: no one can
