High Fidelity Page #4

- Thats not the point. What did he ever do to you?

- He offended me with his terrible taste.

It wasnt even his terrible taste.

It was his daughters.

Are you defending that ass-muncher?

Come on, Rob.

Youre going soft in your old age.

Jesus!

Now all of a sudden

I'm offending your golf buddy.

I'm gonna tell you something

for your own good, pal.

Thats the worst f***in sweater

Ive ever seen. Its a Cosby sweater.

A Cosby sweater!

Did Laura let you leave the house

like that, because-

- Hey- - Hey! Hey!

- F***in a**hole.

- What are you do-

- Shut up. Will you shut up?

- Uh... - Will you? - break it

up. - Youre a f***in maniac.

I swear to God, if you tore this thing, its

vintage, and I would f***in sock your nose.

Youll pay big.

Are you all right?

Yeah. Look, Dick, Laura and I

broke up. Shes gone.

So if you ever see Barry again,

maybe you could tell him that.

Of course I will, Rob.

No problem.

No problem at all.

Ill tell him next time I see him.

Definitely.

Ive, uh, got some other stuff

to tell him, anyway, so its no problem.

Ill just tell him,

you know, about Laura...

um, when I tell him...

the other stuff.

Do you want to talk about it,

that kind of thing?

No. Thank you, though, Dick.

Thank you.

Look at these. I used to dream Id be surrounded

by exotic womens underwear forever and ever.

Now I know they just save their best pairs for the

nights they know theyre gonna sleep with somebody.

Hello, Laura, this is your mother. Your

fathers angina is a little rough today.

I thought he might like to talk to you.

Its no big deal.

I love you two. Bye-bye.

Anyway, me and Charlie,

we didnt match.

Marco and Charlie matched.

Me and Sarah, number four

on the all-time list? We matched.

Shed just been dumped

by some a**hole named Michael.

I mean, Michael

was such an a**hole.

Id just been run over by Charlie.

I know exactly what you mean.

I mean, its just

so painful and draining.

I'm just gonna be by myself

for a while.

Me too. Me too.

It made sense to pool our collective

loathing for the opposite sex.

And while we were at it we could share

a bed with somebody at the same time.

We were frightened of being left alone

for the rest of our lives.

Only people of a certain disposition are frightened

of being left alone for the rest of their lives at 26.

We were of that disposition.

- So when she told me-

- Ive met someone else.

Who?

Just someone else.

It was contrary to the whole spirit

of our arrangement.

I dont have to take this sh*t.

You think I f***in look like sh*t, huh?

So how come I got dumped?

What?

- Hey, Dick. Come on in. What is it?
