The other day, my housemate came home all fidgety and clearly bursting to have the ‘hey, how was your day?’ conversation. He’s decided to start a new business.
Housemate:
I’ve got a business partner now! *smooths back hair* We just had our first business meeting!
Me:
Oh, cool. That’s awesome, congratulations!
Housemate:
Yeah, she’s got financial backing from her family and stuff, they’re really rich, and she’s been wanting to do something like this for ages.
Later that night, after inspecting a potential location for their business, his business partner came over. We were introduced and I asked about their plans.
Housemate:
Oh god, no, we’re not that far ahead yet! I mean, god, we haven’t even got finance or anything, we need to make a business plan..
Me:
Oh, of course. But.. ok.
Housemate:
We’re just starting. I hate those people, you know, those people that whenever they need a huge amount of money, they’ve just somehow GOT it?
Me:
…
Housemate:
You know, like that song, what is it, ‘Common People’?
Me:
…
You didn’t just say that. Oh, wait, you did. And like the other bullshit that you spew forth, it wasn’t sarcastic. Oh, and now they're sleeping together.
