“My brother-in-law’s going to fix that chest of drawers in my room, so we can bring it with us.”
- Oh God. I hate that ugly piece of crap. How can you have such impeccable taste, but like that abomination? Can’t we please give it to the poor?
- It’s a family heirloom. It was in my father’s bedroom when he was a kid.
- T, it’s f*cking ugly.
- Yeah, well I hate your space couch. It’s not comfy.
- Hey! When I bought that I asked for your approval because I knew you’d have to live with it.
- Tell you what. I’m not bringing the bureau if you don’t bring the couch.
- Deal!
- I’ll just stow the bureau at my mom’s.
- Whoa, whoa! That’s not fair! I can’t stow the couch, so I’m giving it up forever, whereas you can always get the bureau back.
- (Sigh).
- Okay, okay. Fine. Deal. So, what are we going to get to replace the space couch?
- Well, we’ll buy something with the moving fund. I was thinking bright orange.
- Cool! So, what are we left with in the moving fund?
- Let’s see… Moving truck rental, new coffee table, pizza and beer for the movers, five appliances, hydro and cable transfer fees, curtains…
- Yeah…
- Uh, so, maybe if we got those bright orange cushions for the space couch, I could live with it…
- Do you think your brother-in-law could change the handles on that bureau?
