“True, but sometimes there’s nice stuff. Like when you posted about the movie last night.”
“What about it?”
“B liked my comment and we had a really friendly back and forth in the thread. It was nice to see she doesn’t hold a grudge about some high school bullshit from a million years ago.”
“I guess.”
“What?”
“Well, I mean, you’re married now.”
“Yeah.”
“And you go by your full first name now too.”
“Yes.”
“And your profile picture is actually a picture of your niece.”
“What about it?”
“Your name is completely different, and she didn’t see your face. B probably had no idea who she was interacting with.”
“Really?”
“Most likely.”
“Wow. I could totally fuck with her.”
“Please don’t.”
“I won’t.”
“Good.”
“But I totally could. That’s what matters.”
