Me: Looks as if you had a rough time of it last night.
Bud: Hmf....females. Someone ought to write an operating manual.
Me: I assume you were behaving badly.
Bud: I was behaving passionately...carried away by Eros when I laid eyes on this luscious Lhasa.
Me: You were selfish.
Bud: I was amorous.
Me: uh-huh...so?
Bud: I TOLD her I loved her.
Me: And?
Bud: She had the audacity to ask me if I knew her name.
Me: Did you?
Bud: No. But that's totally besides the point...
