She tasted like smoke and arrogance.

So I sat around long enough last night,
and eventually J came to my door and said "still hungry? let's go."

He wanted to just do drive through,
but in getting shoes and stuff and getting to the car we started gabbing,
so I suggested somewhere to sit down and talk.

We have the strangest conversations in public.
This topic got taken to a disturbing level.
Which was made more amusing by the fact that not 5 minutes after we ordered,
a family with two kids,
wait, I only recall seeing one, around 4 years old, but it sounded like two.

Anyhow, around midnight and screaming fussy toddler.

My annoyance was slightly lessened by my amusement
at J's violent cringing every time the fucktrophy screeched.
At one point I did think he was going to twitch-cringe right out of his seat.
And he WANTS kids one day.

Then they let it run helter skelter about the area,
crawling under empty booths, running into chairs.
J very obviously resisting putting out his foot to trip the child.

Which then led to a big discussion about why people don't parent anymore,
it's funny, I try to be polite or quiet, because I know I'm not the popular opinion.

I just usually quietly cringe or move,
but J's sitting there, loudly saying "WHY DON'T PEOPLE FUCKING CONTROL THIER CHILDREN!?"
and "Why the fuck would you BRING YOUR KID OUT AT MIDNIGHT?"

Sometimes eris isn't the loud offensive one, go figure.

And so I'll end this with a quote from one of my customers:

"You mean you're going to MAKE ME sit here all weekend with FIVE KIDS and NO TV!?"

Yup.

eris is a geekhag,
no denying.
