friendly insults

Realtime Overheard Gym Conversation:
Me: Hi!
Couple: Hi.
Woman: (to partner) Did you find my stuff?
Man: No, I didn't look for it.
Woman: You're so selfish!
Man: You're a f-ing terrible person. Grow up.
Woman: You need to grow up too. I f-ing hate you.
(They storm off in opposite directions.)

Umm. That was awkward. I'm 3 feet away waiting for them to sign in and did not expect that coming.

So has anyone else been avidly watching the Olympics? Daniel and I have a friendly rivalry going on between US & Austria:
Me: Oh look, we got another gold medal in snowboarding!
D: Who cares about that? Alpine skiing is classic. Austria is the global dream team of skiing.
Me: Is that why Watlzhofenburger or whatever his name lost the gold to a French guy?
D: That guy came from nowhere! No one's heard of him!
Me: Oooh, we got bronze in moguls.
D: That sport is shit!
Me: You're a f-ing terrible person! Grow up.
D: You need to grow up too. I f-ing hate you.
We storm off in opposite directions.*

*This actually does not happen. What I usually say is, You're just sore Hitler came from Austria. And he says, But you guys are still stuck with Bush & Cheney. And then we both cry in shame.

i've actually been enjoying these olympics now that i have time to watch them. and of course they had to add some sports that america can dominate in because we don't excel at winter sports at all. probably one of the reasons why i like the winter games much more than the summer games even though i like many more summer games. not only are the athletes still relatively amateur but it's also relatively even as to who will win. except for russian pairs figure skating anyway...
