I can't believe you have an original MP3 of 'N Sync's ninth single! They were so much better than before reformed! Man 2: Actually. That's a bootleg. Woman: Is it true you still have an original David Foster Wallace E-Novella from '09? Man 2: You bet! I just wish I hadn't forgotten how to read. Woman: How'd you meet mom? Man 2: Well, I was hanging out in this chat room... Man: That's so much more romantic than buying an egg! Woman: I hate being a Gen Zer our parents lived during cool times! Man: We could always kill ourselves but irony went out with rap!
