Two blocks south of Sesame Street
Omar: I'm just wondering if you think I'm being unreasonable?
Telly: No no, I - I - I just haven't had a chance to --
Omar: Because, I thought I told you I wanted my money by Wednesday. I swear that's what we agreed to. And now, here it is... what day is it?
Telly: It's... um --
Omar: I'm sorry, you're going to have to speak up. What day is it?
Telly: Saturday! It's Saturday. And I - I - I'm sorry, I know I'm late, but I'm --
Omar: You're what? No, in fact, I'm gonna tell you what you are. YOU ARE headed to your apartment, or house, or bungalow, or tent, or burrow, or cave, or whatever it is that you live in, and then YOU ARE coming right back here with my $600. Am I understood?
Telly: Yes, I --
Omar: I thought I told you to SPEAK UP?
Telly: YES! I - I will! I'm going right now!

This is the angry loan shark Omar I'm not used to.
Hmm, here's another way: Suggest he should have your money by tomorrow and there won't be any problems. 24 hours.
If he asks what happens in 24 hrs, just say you are not psychic, but that it'd be better for everyone if he had the money. Finish by saying sweet twice and asking how's everything else going. He'll get the message.

Next time, for dramatic effect, I suggest having the Count standing beside you counting backwards from 3 as Telly hauls ass home. Shoud speed things up some.

Show him your Snuffelupagus socks and warn him that he's next because Papa Omar needs a brand new bag......a brand new Telly fur bag, that is.

What does Telly owe you for? Are you a Seseame Street loanshark? A bookie?
Man, Telly is stressin' it. Look how scared he looks. Wow, you're good Omar. I wanna see you threaten Oscar the Grouch.

NCS - I wanted to make sure people know I'm not Mr. Nice Guy all the time, you know?
Nadia - Brilliant!
Carrot - Um... Yeah, landlord. That's what I am. Totally legit landlord.
elastic - Also brilliant. Though Telly's fur color might not match the rest of my accessories, the wife might like it.
Tori - Um, no comment on the first part. As for the part about threatening Oscar, I know better than that.

I knew that the crazy-coloured bunch on Sesame Street were nothing but a bunch of squatters. You tell 'em Omar.
Nice job on the Nike ad placement too. Raking in the dough left, right and center, aren't ya?

I'm holding Prairie Dawn as prisoner until somebody beefs up this anemic comment count......Do it- Or the puppet gets it. Elmo's next followed by baby Bear. I'm hitting all the characters with the most horribly annoying voices first.
This was pure genius, Omar. It should have netted you like a bazillion adoring fans.

Just so I've got this straight, you want people to know that you're not nice all the time, so you do this by loansharking puppets?
Call me a skeptic if you want, but I'm still trying to figure out how you intimidate a puppet. You can't break their legs/arms...
Finally, as I'm sure you know, I'm currently unemployed... do you need some extra help? I don't really offer muscle... not in the traditional sense anyway. But I'm not afraid to get dirty... unless there are spiders involved, then you're on your own. Let me know where to send my resume.
