LOL, lunch was probably the least you could’ve done.

I was made to feel like the “fly in the ointment, the monkey in the wrench, the pain in the ass” who had missed out on something too awesome to put into words.”

… and isn’t that a shame?

But worry not: I’m vilified by same when I state I’ve never seen an episode of Seinfeld, any James Bond flick and more. And I’m okay with that.

To the point, however: An “acquaintence” of mine (who shall remain nameless for the sake of mortification to the extreme) once stated s/he had never seen The Blues Brothers. My jaw dropped. Hadn’t everyone seen The Blues Brothers … ??? Of course they had. And I told s/he this. “That’s not true” s/he said, to which I raised my voice and asked everyone that was in my vicinity while making a circle: “Hey … you seen The Blues Brothers? You … you seen The Blues Brothers? How ’bout you? And you? You too? Anyone in earshot ever NOT seen The Blues Brothers?” I looked back at my “acquaintance” who was, understandably, embarrassed beyond words.

I bought lunch to compensate.

P.S. Recently, s/he has viewed The Blues Brothers … and was not impressed. But that’s okay … not everyone can be good like the rest of us …
