Evil twin #1 and Evil twin #2 met in their freshman year dormitory. Although they were seemingly polar opposites, they discovered they were kindred spirits, sharing a passion for short-lived television shows and board games. Now older, perhaps a little less impulsive and most importantly geographically split up, they have attempted to put aside their evil ways. But when they do get together....

Evil Twin #1 enters Ace Hardware.
Sales Clerk: Can I help you find something today, Ma'am?
ET#1: Yes, I am looking for small pruning shears.
Sales Clerk: Right this way. [He points to a number of shears] What exactly are you trimming? Is it woody or is it green stems?
ET#1: Green. It's a tomato plant.
Sales Clerk: Then just use scissors.
ET#1: I don't own those either.
Sales Clerk: Hmmm. Our scissor collection is pretty laughable but I think a pair of meat shears is pretty all purpose. How about these? How big are the stems?
[ET#1 makes and "o" with her thumb and index finger.]
Sales Clerk: Are you sure you have a tomato plant? That sounds more like cannibis to me?
ET#1: Really? I have yet to have a single tomato this season. My neighbor told me that was because it was too hot this summer. Do the two plant look a lot alike? Do you think Seed Savers would have sent me the wrong seeds?
Sales Clerk: Yeah. They look a lot a like, but I'm sure you have the right plant. Worst comes to worst you can always start a side business. haha.
ET#1 gives a disapproving look. She buys one pair of meat shears and hurries home to wiki cannibis.

so what's the outcome?
Just a sickly tomato plant. My life is not that interesting, I guess.
