Attentive to Detail
"Is that a Pride flag on your rucksack?"
"How very observant of you, sir. And there I was thinking you really needed to visit an optometrist."
"There's nothing wrong with my eyes, smartarse."
"No? You've been having problems for years, sir."
“Bloody well have not. I still have twenty-twenty vision, I’ll have you know, which is considerably better than yours, with your funny-shaped eyeballs.”
“I beg to disagree.”
“On what grounds?”
“On the grounds that I’ve worn a Pride flag at least once a week for years, and you never noticed.”
“Where?”
“On my ankles. It’s on the lavender socks.”
