The BEST guys. The BEST.
I was on the streetcar coming to work about 8:30 am, and reading the guy in front of me's text conversation over his shoulder. Shut up, I'm a writer don't judge me. And anyway text conversations like THESE are why I do it.
All fairly standard stuff: "on my way to work" "any plan's[sic] later?" "maybe go to Sue's"
and THEN! THEN he starts typing out this gem: "I really want to have you pushed up against the wall at the edge of my bed again. Do you want-"
Then he backs up, replaces "Do you want" with "I am going to-" backs up, replaces that with "If you wanted-"
Backs the ENTIRE THING up, sits there thinking for a moment, and then types it all out again, almost verbatim, up to "edge of my bed again"
Sits there for a long moment. Backs it all up one more time.
Types out "Want to hang out? Maybe watch a movie?" Sends.
She (presumably a she) responds: "Sure."
YOU GUYS THAT IS SOME FINE FINE DIALOGUE!
Hands off fellow writers! I stole this scene fair and square!
