1: I have a question. It is meant to be taken as seriously as one takes a question which I've never before asked. 2: Okay. 1: What do you want last night to turn into? 2: Oh. 1: I mean, it's your choice completely. I'm fine with whatever you choose. 2: It takes a special kind of asshole to be this sort of indecisive. 1: I would like to think that if I am an asshole, it is a fault of personality as opposed to one of character. 2: That's exactly the thing a real asshole would say.
