"Congratulations. I didn't know you were an artist?"

"A sea sponge?"
"Not literally..."
"Sea sponges are funny looking, and I always want to spell it with a u like s-p-u-n-g-e."
"Like plunge?"
"Exactly."
"Well, it kind of makes sense. The sponges are submerged... plunged into the water..."
"You're never gonna get there."
"At least I tried."
