It goes like this. Last Wednesday, our Creative Writing class went to the computer lab to work on our final project, which can be anything you want, like a poem, or the first couple chapters of a book or something. Anyways, there's this girl he likes and obviously tries to hit on her, with occasionally hilarious results. Thing is, he's a little bit rusty on his "technique", seeing as how he hasn't been in a relationship in a while, so he says stupid things occasionally. It's ironic; I've never been in a relationship, and although I'm not trying to hit on this girl, I'm having better luck that he is in terms of being charming and such.
Anyways, he starts talking to this girl about whether or not she had a job at RONA. (A chain of hardware stores for you non-Canadians) She said no, and wondered why he would ask. "Well," he says, "I saw this big, buff girl carrying a stack of wood or something and thought it was you." You must realize that this a 5'4", 15-year old girl we're talking about. "Big" and "buff" are far from complimentary terms when discussing her. I just looked at him and basically went "What? (His name), you moron! What the hell are you talking about?" "I just meant it as a compliment." he says. So, I ended up telling all my friends about this, and she apparently did the same as well.
The story doesn't end there, however. We were given an assignment to write about something funny a couple days later. Before I could start, however, the teacher asked me that I should go down to the library and print out something for this writing contest. Since we usually read our stuff out loud, and since I would be missing my turn if I was to go down to the library anyways, I thought I might as well write about what happened with my friend. It wasn't like I was going to read it out loud, anyways. I didn't want to embarrass my friend more than he already was (which was a lot). Or so I thought. Turns out, the teacher wanted me to read mine out loud before I went to the library. So, I read my summary of the event out loud, the WHOLE class cracked up and was basically laughing at my friend. The girl in question later asked me repeatedly if she could have a copy of what I wrote, which I eventually gave her. I later found out that another girl was planning to write about the same thing I did, but didn't read it out loud because I had already done it. Needless to say, it was very funny.
