And Re­sign­ing From Your Fan Club

50-some­thing woman: I want the tiramisu for my birth­day cake!
Hus­band: Well, the restau­rant says they on­ly have in­di­vid­ual por­tions, not a big thing. That would be ex­pen­sive for eleven peo­ple.
50-some­thing woman: Well, I don’t want the key lime pie, that’s fifth on a list of five op­tions.
20-some­thing woman #1: Well, why don’t we get a pie for every­one else, and a tiramisu for you?
50-some­thing woman: I want every­one to eat what I’m eat­ing in com­mem­o­ra­tion of my birth­day!
20-some­thing woman #2: Oh my god. I’m leav­ing.
