Cheese Shop

Postby StiffMittens on Sun May 17, 2009 7:04 pm

Based on the classic Monty Python bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3KBuQHHKx0

The rules are simple. The first poster plays the role of the customer and requests a particular variety of cheese. The next poster plays the part of the shopkeeper who must offer an excuse as to why he does not have any of the requested cheese. The third poster will again play the customer requesting a different variety of cheese, and so forth and so on. For example:

Customer: May I have some Camembert.


Shopkeeper: I'm sorry, the cat has eaten all the Camembert.


The idea is to keep it going for as long as possible without repeating a variety of cheese or an excuse.

Shopkeeper: My apologies we were robbed, by an international gang of cheese thieves, and all they stole was the Havarti.

Shopkeeper: Terribly sorry but our MĆ¼nster cheese distributor recently admitted that his entire empire was one elaborate cheese ponzi scheme and that he never in fact had any cheese to distribute. We're looking for a new source, but in the mean time we don't have any MĆ¼nster.

Oh my, I'm so sorry to hear of your terrible luck.
Might I have some smoked swiss instead?

Shopkeeper: You know my first wife was Swiss. After she committed suicide by suffocating herself in a smokehouse, I just haven't been able to bear the sight of smoked swiss cheese, so I no longer stock it.

shopkeeper: After last winter's epidemic of frostbite I haven't stocked limbergerin large quantities for the obvious reasons.

customer: Well then, maybe just a small amount will do.

shopkeeper: Excellent, I'll go see what we have.

Customer: On second thought, any less than 23 pounds would not give me the level of aromatic saturation that I desire from the Limburger. So instead fetch me a kilo or two of Feta, if you please.

Shopkeeper: My apologies ever since Mad-Cow disease people have been eating any goats they can get their hands on. Sadly now there are not enough goats around to make any feta.

Shopkeeper: Chavez halted all exports of beaver cheese last month as a sanction against all the filthy imperialist dogs. You can still find some black market Venezuelan beaver cheese at the more disreputable shops in the district, but that's not how I run my business. Sorry.

My goodness, shopkeeper, you are remarkably ignorant on the topic of cheesy comestibles, are you not?

Very well: since the wonders of caerphilly are beyone your limited comprehension, perhaps you would be so kind as to purvey a few crumbs of wensleydale, so amusingly brought to the popular attention by the televisual antics of Wallace and Gromit?

A pity. Perchance a shift of location in our dairy producers might prove efficacious then.
Might I inquire as to the possibility of a smidgen of Manchego, my man?

Shopkeeper: Sadly the ship from La Mancha carrying this months supply took a wrong turn and was captured by Somalian pirates. They are however prepared to ransom off the cheese, if you would like to negotiate with them for some.
