The monologue starts with complaints about things like "the under-eighteens and the over-sixties, the numerous ones who dialed my number and hung up as soon as I said hello, the thirty-five or forty of you who made dates with me and never showed up", and ends with her screaming about "the drunks, junkies, crack- and coke-heads, the multitude of liars, AND ESPECIALLY THE NICE ONES WHO NEVER CALLED BACK!" |
