"I just looked at the credit card statement online on my lunch break and... Why does it look like you spent $70 on soap?"
"Because I spent $70 on soap."
"On soap. The kind in bars."
"Yes. That kind of soap."
"$70."
"Technically it was around $90, but I had some money already in my PayPal account."
"On soap."
"Yes. On soap."
"You can see where I might have a problem with this."
"If we're going to have this conversation, I'm about to bring in Exhibit Nerd. In which I point you to the charge JUST BELOW the one in question. I believe, sir, that you are looking at a charge of over $200 on graphic novels and comics."
"$70 seems pretty reasonable."
"I rest my case, your honour. My lathery moisture-locked case."
I feel obliged to note that I buy soap by the handmade batch and it can take years to get through a stash....so don't judge me. I shower.
Well bowled indeed. And viva la graphic novel!
