you: I've been pretty good this year, I'd say. Santa should not be a jerk and get his act together.
me: i'll write a letter for you. a character reference. what color should i tell santa to have the elves make your glittens?
you: you're a sweetheart.
...
you: it's not a bad thing, if it's a little silly.
me: it's whimsical.
you: but i don't mean to make the impression that it's entirely silly. no way Jose.
me: because then you'd be calling yourself silly, right? and we can't be self-depricating. not right now at least.
you: yeah, that's kinda against the rules.
me: what rules. life rules?
you: our rules of common conversation. 1. no need to apologize so much. 2. no need to be self-depreciating so much.
me: 3. no need to assume the other person is weirded out.
you: right.
