This Same Old Song
(My friend and I are on a two-month-long school camp together at the school’s farm (large private school), and we’re playing a game of Go Fish together in our room. She’s listening to her music on her laptop using headphones.)
Me: “Why don’t you play it through the speakers?”
Friend: “Because I’m not sure you’d like it…”
Me: “I don’t really care, just do it”
(She pauses her music and unplugs her headphones, I can’t see her screen but i can tell that she’s trying to find a song that ‘won’t annoy me.’ Note: I hadn’t heard her music before. She starts the song — I can’t remember exactly what; I think it was some form of metal — and I’m sitting there waiting for her to take her turn with a mostly blank face.)
Friend: “This is one of their worse songs.”
Me: *knowing what she’s doing* “That moment when you have someone listen to one of your favourite songs, and you’re worried they don’t like it so they say it’s one of their worst.”
Friend: “FOR F***’S SAKE!”
Me: “What?!”
Friend: “You f****** caught me… d*** it…”
(What can I say? I know what people do…)
