ME:You already contribute way more to this friendship, dude. The power imbalance is wild.

JACK:What are you talking about?

ME:You’re the one bringing everything to the table here.

JACK:Sadie.

JACK:You don’t actually think that.

ME:Them’s the facts, Jack.

JACK:The offer stands if you need me.

HARLEY:So we went out to dinner with Nick’s parents last weekend...

ME:AND?

GEMMA:Did you double-check to make sure he’s not on this thread?

HARLEY:Like ten times.

ME:OK AND???????

HARLEY:And it was great. His mom said, “We were wondering if the two of you were ever going to get your shit together.”

ME:Awwwww yay!

GEMMA:I call dibs on the KitchenAid mixer!

HARLEY:Haha.

GEMMA:You think I’m joking. One of Nick’s rich-ass friends can buy you a new one for your wedding

ME:I’m so happy for you, Harley!

GEMMA:Me too! I promise those aren’t sobs of loneliness and abandonment you’re hearing coming from my room every night.

ME:Sooooooooooooooo

ME:Remember when I was all like I don’t need your help and I’m a strong independent woman and I refuse to rely on a man?

JACK:I don’t recall those exact words, but yes, I remember the general conversation.

ME:I really need your help.

ME:Please.

ME:Pretty please.

ME:With a cherry on top.

ME:I’ll buy you drinks if you come to the bar tonight!

JACK:I’m just putting a shirt on, I’ll be right there.

ME:Hmmm. Shirtless floral delivery, you might have something there.
