Geography:

“What if we call it, something like, Earth-writing, but in Greek. Isn’t that how it's done?’

“Do you mean geography, sir?”

“See! That’s it. Geo...gee...it’s a nice big word.”

“Geography already means something, sir.”

“Well, change it. I have full immunity. I can do what I like.”

“It would confuse the children.”

“Let me tell you about child- er. No, I’m not allowed to talk about that.”

“Maybe if the monument was bigger, sir.”

“Our country is by far the largest in the world. It’s so big. So very, very big.”

“But it’s not earth-sized. So it can’t be geography.”

“It could be. We have the largest army. We could invade-”

“Lithography?”

“That’s a big word. I like big words. Lith...lisso…lezzo-”

“Lithography. Stone writing.”

“I like that. My name written in stone across the-”

“The problem is that most of the country isn’t made of stone, sir. We’d need to import it from Canada or Mexico.”

“No, no. I definitely don’t want to have to deal-”

“What if we wait until winter, sir. Then, you write your name in the snow. All the way from the North West to Maine.”

“What would we call that?”

“We could make something up. For instance, niphography?.”

“That’s another big word. Is it Greek? Niffo...nympho-”

“It’d take a lot of piss, sir.”

“Oh, I’m full of piss. I have more piss than anyone. I could just piss for hours if I needed to-”

“But that would just include the North, sir What we need is something the covers the entire country. From the Pacific, to the Atlantic. From Mexico, to Canada.”

“Oh, I love the cover the entire country. I have the biggest coverage ever. Much more than Canada. Nobody has more cover-”

“I’ve got it, sir! Rhypography*! It’s Greek and it fits perfectly.”

“What do I have to do?”

“Keep doing what you’re doing, sir.”
