Happy+Days+Dialogue

HAPPY DAYS DIALOGUE POSITIVE: Sam and Duncan NEGATIVE: Olivia

POSITIVE: The word from the bird is that the 50's were the best of times. Eisenhower is da boss. His ideas of creating the department of health, education and welfare are fat city. Ya dig dog?

NEGATIVE: That's all great, but don't go all ape on me now. Welfare isn't exactly the bees-knees. Plus, that may sound good, but not everyone was able to live the American dream. Not everyone could be a paper-shaker at a great school. Many minorities weren't able to live that lifestyle.

POSITIVE: Well I am frosted by your negativity! Since the economy was boomin, everyone was gettin' a load of bread. There was no fake out dog, ya dig? Even the chariot business was rockin'. Ya see how we dig?

NEGATIVE: I dig whatca sayin cat. No doubt, most of us were rolling in the dough. But not everyone was you know? There was a lot of urban poor. And our returning veterans didn't have a place to live, and that's the word from the bird.

POSITIVE: Well lady ain't you a wet rag. But what is really in orbit is the new technological advances. We got the big guns comin in with the missiles and da rockets. Antibiotics are the new craze, ya dig dog?

NEGATIVE: Those technological advancements are pretty boss, and the space race too. The cats who had those gigs definitely had some jets going on upstairs. But that arms race has got me fuzzy. I just don't get why you should pull out the big guns to kill the enemy, both definitions applied here man. That's pretty dangerous, and it definitely doesn't razz my berries.

POSITIVE: Now don't you flip about the negative when this is the happy days. Cut the gas! But what was really made in the shade was this "hip" rock and roll music. My main man, Elvis Presley, producin' records out of this world and sweeping the nation by storm. You dig dog?

NEGATIVE: WOW! Elvis sure was rockin'! And the fifties were pretty jammin. But those reds!! I mean, the Red Scare, McCarthyism. All this propaganda thats buzzin around. "Better dead than Red"! I mean they're such wet rags. The Cold War is one scary thing, and it doesn't add pizazz to the fifties.

NEGATIVE: Yeah true, but the people who came from overseas weren't treated very nicely. Just cause they're from a different place, doesn't mean we have to treat them badly. They didn't have a happy life, ya dig? Man, i think we should agree to disagree, cause i wanna go pile up some z's!
