A conversation from today

Today, Shannon asked me to help her brainstorm an adjective to describe the Chester River. My instructions were that it had to be a real adjective and not negative. Our conversation went something like this:

Nick: Mind-blowing.
Shannon: ummm
maybe i just won’t use an adjective
Nick: The most incredible river you’ve ever seen! The fish walk on land and drive little French cars! The birds have tiny top hats and make you dinner when you are feeling unwell! The boats are covered in platinum and run only on the sound of children playing!
Shannon: are you on drugs?
Nick: It’s possible, but unlikely.
