[gnomi]

(Scene: mabfan and gnomi are headed to the grocery store. That's not particularly relevant to this conversation. I just usually set the scene here, so it felt weird not to do so.)

mabfan: I'm a poet now, you know.

gnomi: You are?

mabfan: Yes! I'm a member of the Science Fiction Poetry Association. That makes me a poet!

gnomi: No, it doesn't. That's like saying that my joining the National Rifle Association would make me a rifle!
