Girl: Why don’t you just make a list of things I need to change about myself so I can be more like you?
Guy: Okay, let’s start with your tooth brushing. How about rinsing off the toothbrush before you put it back into the cabinet so there is not old toothpaste and spit dripping off of it? And how about rinsing after you brush?
Girl: Anything else?
Guy: No, I think that’s the only thing you need to change about yourself.

Guy: Why?
Chick: You’re gonna laugh…
Guy: I’ll laugh no matter what.

Guy: What?
Chick: If we were laying on my bed I wouldn’t be on my side.

Girl #1: So then he kissed me, and it was really awkward, because I don’t want to get involved with that train wreck.
Girl #2: So what did you do?
Girl #1: Told him that I really liked him, but I was seeing someone else exclusively.
Girl #2: You are? And you do?
Girl #1: No, but being in awkward social situations makes me a compulsive liar.
Girl #2: Isn’t that also your excuse for drinking too much?
Girl #1: That’s really not fair to say.
Girl #2: So what did you do after that?
Girl #1: We did some vodka shots, and then I passed out on the subway and ended up in Brooklyn.
Girl #2: Good job.
