A: I would normally never let you into my house, B, but it's Christmas Eve. Come and stay with me. I only hope that the time you've spent homeless will have at least reduced your desire to make puns.
B: Thank you, A. But I should warn you: not even spending a week on the street could curb that.
A: Oh well. Try to restrain yourself. Merry Christmas, B.
[They walk off together.]
B: Hey, A?
A: Yes?
B: Have you read that best-selling autobiography of the woman who could not stay still?
A: I haven't even heard of it.
B: It's generally considered to be very moving.
A: Why me? Why, why, why?
B: Merry Christmas, A.
