Siddhartha: well fascinating reviews i got from arjun actually
me: really now?
were they positive or negative?
Siddhartha: "she's not at all as random as you make her out to be"

Siddhartha: of course i'm digging my grave here by telling you all this considering that we're having a major foursome tomorrow
