Have you ever noticed that sometimes when someone laughs you can totally tell that they he/she is dying to have you ask why they’re laughing? The laugh doesn’t sound authentic, there’s something strange about it. You just know that the person is waiting for you to say, “What’s so funny?” so they can share a stupid story with you.
LW (Long Winded) has currently been doing that for the last half hour. I REFUSE to ask her what’s so funny because I know that she will begin telling me a story that is:
-
Not even remotely funny
-
Completely pointless
-
Totally boring
-
Longer than John Holmes – and not in a good way.
Perhaps I need to put my headphones back on. Her fake laugh is distracting me from my important job of researching the latest celebrity gossip and catching up on my blog reading.
