“Yep.”

“I’ll set you up if this doesn’t work out. She’s a first year at U of T. Majoring in English, minor in Art History. I bet she’d love to hear you little theory on what women’s bookshelves say about them. I bet you could run down her self esteem a little with your diatribe against the Bronte’s.

“Go on”
“I don’t understand a fucking thing about it.”
“Me neither.”
“Cool”
