So if you want to pick up someone, I don't recommend this tactic. The picker-up, a portly man of about 40 with thick glasses and an incurable lisp tried to pick up on my friend, who recently went to jail. This is how it went:
P.M.: Hey! How are you doing? Have we met? I'm Orlando.
Friend: We've met several times.
P.M.: You're looking good! Have you been working out?
(P.M. squeezes Friend's arm.)
Friend: No. I haven't.
P.M.: You haven't? Well have you been eating chili cheese dogs?
Friend: Um, no.
P.M.: Have you tried the chili cheese dogs at 7-11?
Friend: No.
P.M.: You haven't? They're my favorite chili cheese dogs! You should try them!
Friend: Okay.
P.M.: Call me some time and we'll go get chili cheese dogs at 7-11, okay? High five.
(The conversation ends awkwardly. Friend makes an excuse about needing a drink, which was probably the case.)
i got a chilli cheese dawg right heya
ReplyDeleteYour writing is so evocative. It's like I was there.
ReplyDeleteYou probably were there. Think about it.
