February 17th - Short Conversation for Practice

L: I hate shaving.
JB: Me too.
L: I just cut myself again.
JB: Did you use a new blade?
L: It doesn't matter. Old blades cut, new blades cut.
JB: Maybe you should use an electric shaver.
L: They make a lot of noise, but they don't give a close shave.
JB: Maybe you should stop shaving.
L: And grow a beard?
JB: Sure. Why not?
L: Because food and other stuff sticks in my beard.
JB: Hmm. Here's an idea. Put cream on your face and have Neguinha lick it off.
...............................................................
G: Excuse me.
L: Yes?
G: Are you reading this paper?
L: Oh, no. Help yourself.
G: I asked because the paper is sitting next to you.
L: Thank you. That's polite of you to ask.
G: Some people would just pick it up.
L: Yes, I know. Some people are rude.
G: I always try to be polite.
L: So do I.
G: The world needs more polite people like us.
L: I agree 100 percent.May I have a question?
G- Of course! Go ahead!
L- Are you some kind of gay?
G- It wasn't polite.
............................................................
G: Dad, I want a puppy.
L: We already have Neguinha. Let me think about it.
G: Why do you have to think about it?
L: Because a puppy costs money.
G: No, it doesn't. Puppies are free.
L: Yes, but a puppy needs shots.
G: Shots for what?
L: So it won't get sick. Just like you get shots.
G: I hate shots.
L: And a puppy eats food. Food costs money.
G: No problem. I'll give him food off my plate.
L: Oh, no you don't. Puppies don't eat vegetables.
.......................................................
G: Look at all these kittens!
JB: How many are there?
G: Eight.
JB: They're all so cute.
G: Yes, but I can't keep them.
JB: What are you going to do with them?
G: I'm going to give them away. Do you want one?
JB: Yes, I would love one.
G: Which one do you want?
JB: That one. The one that's all black.
G: Yes, I like that one, too.
JB: I'll call him Timão.
...........................................................
L: My friend's parents go to church every Sunday.
G: They trust in God, don't they?
L: They hope they will go to heaven.
G: They probably will.
L: But no one knows for sure.
G: That's for sure.
L: No one knows what happens after we die.
G: If we are good, we will be happy in heaven with God.
L: That's what many people believe.
G: If we are bad, we will be unhappy forever in hell.
L: I don't want to go to hell.
G: Let's go to church with them on Sunday.
.............................................................

L: My boss died.
JB: I'm sorry for you.
L: Thank you.
JB: When did he die?
L: A couple of months ago.
JB: You still miss him, don't you?
L: Yes, but I talk to him almost every day.
JB: I got it. When you go to church, right?
L: No, when I call him on his cell phone.
JB: What do you mean?
L: I buried him with his cell phone.
JB: What will you do when the battery dies?

......................................................

G: Today is Friday the thirteenth.
L: That's a bad day.
G: It's supposed to be unlucky.
L: You're supposed to stay home all day.
G: That's what I do.
L: My friend stayed in a hotel on Friday the thirteenth.
G: That was a mistake.
L: He stayed on the thirteenth floor.
G: What happened?
L: Someone stole his laptop.
G: He was asking for it.
L: He learned his lesson. He's home today.

.....................................................

G: Do you really love me?
L: Of course. You are my son.
G: Prove it.
L: How can I prove it?
G: Take me and Julia to dinner on my birthday.
L: That's it? That's all I have to do?
G: Take me to a nice restaurant, not to McDonald's or Outback.
L: But a nice restaurant costs money.
G: Yes, and you have to make a reservation.
L: That's such a hassle.
G: I knew you didn't love me.
L: Okay, okay! I'll make a reservation right now.
