“I'd like to slap him with a large trout,” says Gary when the waiter is gone. “So this fish cake you were talking about, what's her name again?”
“Elaine.”
“Beautiful name. As you were saying – you haven't had her yet, so she's on your to do list. Am I right?”
“Whatever.” I can't hold it against him that Gary's not a good listener. That's why we're such good friends. Maybe I'll get through to him some day, but not today. I don't even know what I was gonna say about Elaine. “Yeah. Top of the list.”
“That's why it hasn't happened yet, man. Never prioritise women. They're like dogs, they can smell it when you're desperate. They run a mile from you when they know how badly you want it.”
“Right.”
I hope you've got a comeuppance in store for Gary. Douchebags make lousy heroes.
