Him:

So I was thinking earlier when I was playing Civ IV how “IV” is Roman numerals for “4” and “civ” ends with “iv”, and I was thinking, if they ever come out with version 104 of the game, then it would be like Civ CIV (since “C” is Roman numeral for 100).

Her:

Boy, you are geeky.

Tonight while getting dinner from Subway, it seemed like the guy in front of me wanted to really make sure everyone knew his white American preferences.

At the end I was almost expecting his answer to “for here or to go” to be: “I’ll eat it here in white America”.

Don’t drink and drive? Hell, I can barely drive while full from a huge Sunday morning, all-you-can-eat brunch.

But officer, I can’t buckle my seat belt because I’m too full.
