He then hands you a single little red rose. Finally having enough, you tell him flat out that it just aint gonna work and that you and him are just too different. You tell him to leave you alone and to never bother you again. When he hears this, he tries to hide the hurt inside and for the most part, he does well, you see, he has been rejected before. But before he turns to leave, he says once again that he loves you and as he says this you notice a little tear fall from his eye. He turns and leaves you standing there with the little red rose.
Is this McDonalds in Florida, by any chance?
Quote:Which one of the two men would you say really loved you Deidre? Timmy or Jim Bob?
Likely neither.
There is a point to what appears to me to be a very condescending line of Socratic questioning, yes?
