“I would not like a beer. I do not like the way it tastes to me.” “What does it taste like to you?” I asked. “Metaphor is difficult for me, so I apologize if I get this wrong,” Ran said. “All right.” “Beer tastes like ass.” “No, you got it right,” I told Ran.”

The moron looked at the key, but did give her the middle finger.”
