he was feeling playfultickled to follow up a friends benign remark with his own twist  jujitsu

He ought to know you by now  an interior Mariachi 

Youd think

Think hell pickup on it  Odds

Its not a coin toss you think I think  I think you doubt it                 

I think you doubt it

I do No collusion

nodding abruptly Ohhellno he almost lost his sombrero  We agree

agreed they were ridiculously gleeful he tossed out his line 

                                                                 A hard time

Definitely assuredly so. he nodded abruptly too but wasnt wearing a hat

Whadahell I like  NO I love givin girls a hard time

Love the twinkle in your eye the dirty smirk

Telegraph it too much

Nah reminiscent of silent films actors who had to exaggerate for emphasismake up for the lack of sound I love em  Thank you for continuing to watch

Well me you an yours are the only ones wholl sit through em

Youve asked

I have Its funnyalmost thathey think Im kiddin

You give girls, women, a hard time?

I doI love givin em a hard time

Doesn’t that chase them away?I wouldn’t.

You woudnt give a woman a hard time

                                             Theres things you can take for that

Too much

  No  he wont surprised us

he let things to take for that slip by and glommed onto the fact he was willing to give a woman a hard timepossibly cause effrontery  chase them off 

                                    I wouldn’t.

Yare really diggin your heels in

I wouldn’t want to minimise my chances.

Not confident are you

Confident enough, I just don’t see an advantage in antagonising a woman.

Here we go

Onward

Im not Actually Im stimulating them

You think antagonising someone stimulates them?

  Women  Yes

Can you explain?

Unfortunately I have to

You think his head will explode

No

Are you going to say?

 Unfortunately say   Excuse me I was lingerin in hopes youd follow my drift

No. Explain your how you’re stimulating them.

Hes really asking for it

Yes he is

The antagonism as you call it stimulates them 

                                                  I said I love givin girls a hard time Its nuanced in the delivery steppin in close speaking softer conspiratorially the tone expression on your face a playful suggestion  Women like to be teased very bit as much as men flirted with   GIVE THEM A HARD TIME

Lights arent going on 

No theyre not 

Have to be crass

Crass comin up

                    Moisten them up

Moisten?  his face twitched

                             MyGod . . you’re crass.

Imagine finally on the same page

You my B B F.

No Im not anfor cryinoutloud woudya please act your age

My kids told me . .

. . Woud they act their age  This kind of crap reminds me of my Maw shed say Use your words, you’re a big boy.

Use your words

I happen to think it's clever.

Trust me yare not the arbiter of clevernot by a long shot Strikes me thayare vying to be hip hang   Be groovy

It’s shorthand . .

. . Its specialised language like law medicine  sciences   Utilised to identify membership belonging  to include exclude Anyou  yahave a need to belong

Like you don’t? I think it’s human nature.

You prefer human nature evading avoiding Its truncated euphemism how hard is it to just say whaya mean because I got no problem walking away  Ive no need to fit in

he made a puss to implore himhed seen it too many times before I think it’s fun, it can be fun.

Then have fun with someone else  Im not entertaining it

Aw come on . . this one time. imploring was glaring out in the open  looked like thirdstage syphilis  cankers pox deformation

he actually took a step back

revulsion can do that

One time.

            What would you guess?

Bombastic bestial frank  A A   Adjectives all

No.

      You come up with that in the time I asked?

Yah

Three strikes and Im out

You act like you don’t want to know.

Best Friends Forever.

Oh thanks sounds like something a chick woud say Id be careful with tha if I were you Coud turn on you
