Worst conversation ever
Once a friend of mine and I were at Del Taco, and I grabbed her cup to fill it up when I went to fill mine. I asked her what she wanted and she said "Pepsi". "Coke okay for your?" I asked. She groaned and said yes, it was fine. "What's wrong?" I asked. "You don't like Coke?"
"It's too sweet," she said. "But it's a fountain drink so it probably won't make much of a difference."
I told her I also preferred Pepsi. I didn't used to, though. I used to prefer Coke. However, the grocery store that we started shopping at must have had a deal with Pepsi, because they'd go long periods of time with Pepsi on sale, so we started buying it frequently. At one point in time I'd gone months with no Coke. Then finally, Coke was on sale, and we bought it, and it was so sweet it felt like my teeth were falling out.
And then I realized, this was positively the lamest excuse for a conversation I'd had in my entire adult life. Believe me, I've had trivial conversations, but this was trivial and lame, which is a terrible combination. I tell you this story as a warning: if you ever catch yourself comparing your relative preference of Pepsi vs. Coke, discontinue the conversation immediately!
