Are you happy, with the work you've been doing?

[heydrb]

Yeah, I really like it. It's...calming?
I mean, it's hard as hell, and I get up before the fucking sun, but I like it.
Horses are kinda better than people.



Most people.

[Some people aren't so bad.]

[atypical_echo]

I'm better than horses?

[heydrb]

[Was it that obvious? (It definitely was that obvious.)
Doesn't make the blatant call-out any less embarrassing.
Thank fuck Mark can't see him right now.]

You're better than a lot of things.

[atypical_echo]

Does 'better than a horse' go under 'skills' or 'achievements'?

[heydrb]

Achievements, I think.

[atypical_echo]

I'll note it there then. There we go. Updated.

[heydrb]

Dork.

[atypical_echo]

Yeah, but you knew that coming into this conversation.

[heydrb]

Yeah, turns out I don’t mind it.

[atypical_echo]

See, this is how you get led down the wrong path in life. Listening to people like me.

[heydrb]

Think you got my lines mixed up with yours, there.

[atypical_echo]

You've not led me down any bad path

[heydrb]

No?
Don’t think your sister would agree, there.

[atypical_echo]

Yes, because my opinions absolutely must agree with hers.

[heydrb]

I thought everybody agreed I was a bad path.

[atypical_echo]

You're more of a slightly off pitch note. You could get better, but it's still ringing in our ears.

[heydrb]

Cute.

[atypical_echo]

Thought you'd like the metaphor.

[heydrb]

It’s a good one.

[atypical_echo]

I was trying to tune into what you might like.

[heydrb]

Stop...


[Except maybe don't.]

[atypical_echo]

are my jokes a little off key?

[heydrb]

Oh my god, how many of these do you have?

[atypical_echo]

Why? Are they falling flat?
