Strange Conversations: Part Ninety-Three

A Packrat/laptop-with-a-scroll-pad related strange conversation:

ME: Bugger!
NICK: What?
ME: I just bought a sodding parrot!
NICK (slightly different intonation): What?
ME: I was just trying to scroll down the page and I accidentally bought a bloody parrot! Now what do I do?
NICK: You just . . .
(Long pause)
ME: Yes?
NICK: You just got to keep it real.
(Longer pause)
NICK: I have no idea what that means. Sorry.

It cost me one hundred credits, too.

And, five minutes later:

ME: I mean, a bloody parrot! I don’t need a parrot. I’ve already finished that set.
NICK: It happens, Treen. You just need to deal with it.
ME: I have never accidentally bought a parrot before.
NICK: Really?
