For many years, my wife and I had a small ‘Noah’s Ark’ farm. My Dad was a school administrator. He dubbed the ducks ‘The Curriculum Committee’.
In Duckese, they’re coordinating a method to poison you. Don’t accept any duck snacks!
I think they are saying:
“Hey, got any grapes?”
“I was going to ask you for grapes.”
“Well too late, I asked you first. Got any grapes?”
“No, I don’t have any grapes. Do you have any grapes?”
“If I had grapes I wouldn’t be asking you for some.”
“Well you might if you didn’t want to eat your own.”
“That doesn’t make any sense!”
“Aw forget it, I’m going to go get some lemonade.”
And then he waddled away. Waddle waddle.
I was thinking of something kinda similar, hoping they were saying something profound to each other, but ultimately realizing it could very well be this.
