"This has to be the weirdest storm I've ever seen."

"Oh, come on. It's only hail. You've seen hail before, haven't you?"

"I hate to break it to you, but that's not hail."

"What is it, then?"

"Marbles."

"Marbles? You gotta be kidding me. It doesn't rain marbles!"

"It's been known to rain fish, frogs, and odd gelatinous substances."

"You're too into Charles Fort."

"If you don't believe it's raining marbles, then go out there and prove me wrong!"

"Fine. I will. Ow!"

"Well? What's your conclusion?"

"Alright, smug guy. You were right. It's raining marbles."

"I told you so."
