Mempsis (memp’-sis): Expressing complaint and seeking help.
I was led to believe that this powder would grow hair on my head! So far, I’ve dumped a kilo on my bald spot and nothing’s happened.
Well, something’s happened: there’s an abundance of hair growing out of my nose and ears–there’s lots of it & it isn’t very attractive. Also, hairy warts have popped up on my cheeks & I’m getting a hump on my back.
What the hell have you done to me?
Fix it!
What? You say I bought the “Troll Formula” by mistake?
So, what can you do to fix it?
What?!
I need to hide under a bridge for a week & and eat at least one ill-tempered billy goat?
That’s asking a lot, but I am getting a little hungry for billy goat.
Where’s the bridge?
