Scott doesn't like change or chimney sweeps

Michelle:
why does everyone feel the need to change things? What's wrong with the way things used to be?

Scott:
I demand things go back to the way they used to be. I demand children be sent back down the mines and poor people must be made to clean my boots.

Michelle:
indeed - and don't forget the chimney sweeps

Scott:
now there's a cushy job if ever there was one

Michelle:
true - nice warm working environment, lovely decorative layer of soot, a big brush, and the possibility of a song and dance routine with Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins

Scott:
and weren't there dancing penguins involved at some point?

Michelle:
yes, Dick Van Dyke did dance with penguins in the chalk drawing scene where he and the penguins sang about all the wonderful women they knew but Mary Poppins was the best of the lot

Scott:
Oh, ok, different scene then. I was confused and thought the penguins were involved in the chimney sweeping.

Michelle:
in the chimney sweep scene, he was dancing with fireworks

Scott:
i'm not sure if that's more logical than dancing with penguins

Michelle:
is a Disney movie - logic doesn't come into it

Scott:
in that case why didn't he dance with screaming cannibal pygmy headhunters?
