Okay Melissa You're Doing Fine : Chapter 7 Win Friends and Influence People
"You, you, you," said the man in the souped up car who had ... I mean, he had just run in front of me, which, you know, that's rude. Rudeness, rudeness, rudeness. I'm going to die soon. Rudeness. Not a fan of either of those.
"Are you eyeing me?" said the man in the very fancy car.
"Yeah, I'm eyeing you," I said.
"You think you're better than me? You think you can beat me? the great Jason?" he said
Jason got out of his car and started snapping his fingers and dancing towards me. It looked not good. It. Is that supposed to be intimidating? It's really not intimidating. It's, in fact, the opposite of intimidating. It's un-intimidating. I'll say something to that effect.
"You're un-intimidating, and I don't get what you're doing." I said
"I'm seductively dancing towards you." He said
"You look like a dinosaur." I said
"I'm being a very seductive dinosaur dancing towards you."
"Ah," I said.
"So, do you want to race me or not?" Jason said.
"Of course I want to race you. I already assumed we were going to race, the second I saw you drive near me," I said, lying. I didn't think any of these things. Oh, God, I'm about to get into a street race. Let me process this. PLet's see. Driving very fast, illegally. I don't see anything that could go wrong with this. “Okay, I'm up for this.”
“ladies and gentlemen, and whatever you may identify as, we have a new challenger! To the illegal race-a-thon 2000.”
"Do you have a car?" Jason said.
"No, I do not have a car."
"Easy. Benny, give up your car." He's pointing to the small man, who, I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say that they were friends from high school, but Benny's kind of moved on. It's not just because he's wearing a polo shirt, that's tucked into his shorts. That's a lot of the reason, and also, he's driving in the minivan.
"But, Jason. Wait, I need my car, because I've got to do errands and stuff." Said benny
"Benny. Benny, Benny, Benny. Listen to me, man. Is this so-called family you have more important than loaning your car out to a total stranger so that I can race them and prove that I'm the best driver in the continent?"
"Yes."
"I respect you, Benny. I respect the ferking hell out of you, man. You're my best friend, and that will never change. Okay. You come back here later tonight. We'll have another car. Not Benny's car, 'cause Benny has a life to live. “ said jason
“Mr. Jason, I'm thrilled and I am excited in more ways than you can understand," I said.
"Wonderful, the address is here." Jason took out a very professional looking card. I gotta say, I really respect Jason in a lot of these ways at this point.
