Moments of Adequacy: Quote for the day

Wednesday, January 25, 2006

Our friend can spill his dinner in our lap and we won't mind; our enemy annoys us by the way he holds his fork.

Do we ever get tired of our friend spilling dinner on our lap or are we always going to be ok with it no matter how many or how often...as long as they are sorry and are still our friend? :)

seriously, tho: great quote.

Broken glass: all good, because of your status. :)
Not sure about the friend who makes a habit of the dinner-in-the-lap thing, or a friend you got mad at. I think those are separate categories outside the broad generalization represented by the original quote.
