A couplet short of a sonnet
(we're all mad here)
Left: You are a dedicated father who, with your wife, has just sat down  to dinner with your 15-year-old daughter, who is defiantly announcing  that she’s pregnant.Center: You are a fashion designer on the morning of your big runway  show, realizing that nothing in the collection is ready or fabulous.Right: You are a blustering, pompous member of the British Parliament,  giving a speech that is being broadcast on the BBC, and you’re thrilled  at the sound of your own voice.

Left: You’re the cornerman for a winded female boxer, desperately exhorting her: “She’s run away with your boyfriend! She’s kidnapped your kid! Get out there and kill that heifer!” Center: You’re five years into a contented but sedentary married life, protesting to your wife, “I said you’re ‘Rubenesque.’ It doesn’t mean fat. It means … Rubenesque!” Right: You’re a 10-year-old in a high-rise apartment, playing fetch with your fox terrier and a tennis ball—which has just bounced out the window, with your dog in full pursuit.
I love the one on the right. :P
