I haven’t watched the Dragnet movie in a long, long time until last night. I loved it, of course. If I could have one celebrity best friend, it would definitely be pre-Philadelphia Tom Hanks.
Watch this amusing music video from the 1987 Dragnet movie:

A witnessed dialogue between three women at a doctor’s office:
Receptionist (hereafter “REC”): May I help you?
Woman in UGG® boots (hereafter “UGG®”): I’m just going around all the offices and letting the medical staff know that our spa is giving a SUPER SAVINGS DISCOUNT to ya’ll if ya’ll want to come in for a full spa treatment.
REC: Okay.
UGG®: Yeah, it’s a facial, hair treatment, full manny, full peddy, the works, m’hm. It’s about a 90% discount. I just want to know who here would love that?!
REC: Yeah, well, I don’t do dat really.
UGG®: So, you’re not interested?
REC: Nope. Not really.
UGG®: Is there anybody else here that might be interested?
REC: I don’t know. I’ll ask.
UGG®: That’d be great.
A minute passes. A nurse appears at the window. She has bright purple streaks in her wispy, black hair. She is not a good nurse. She will be known as “INCOMPETENT.”
INCOMPETENT: Yeah, what’s up?
UGG®: Hi, we’re giving all the staff a full spa treatment discount. That includes a facial, highlights, or lowlights in your hair, full manny, full pedd…
INCOMPETENT: What kinda discount?
UGG®: Um, well, it’s about 90% off. So, it’s usually $400, but it’ll be more like $60 for ya’ll.
INCOMPETENT: Mm-uh-mm. That’s good!
UGG®: Yeah, right? It hasn’t started yet. We’re just going round right now and seeing who would love that. If you want to sign up with your name and e-mail, we’ll let you know when it happens and give you times to schedule an appointment. Does that sound awesome or what?
INCOMPETENT: I know dat’s right.
She signs up.
The End.
That took up about five minutes of the two hours I spent in a waiting room today. Enjoy your Presidents’ Day weekend!
