““This might seem kind of weird... but I mean, I wouldn't mind asking Jill out." Adrian was on that before I could even think of a response. "What, do you mean like on a date? You son of a bitch!

"I'm guessing Lee's definition of a date is a little different than yours." "Sorry, Sage. You've got to trust me when it comes to dating definitions. Last I checked, you aren't an expert in social matters.””
