I just Facebooked several friends asking, “How can I be of service to you?” Now that I have demonstrated my sobriety and altruism, I can go back to business as usual. Funnily enough, none of them took me seriously.
Friend: “If you really meant it, you would have said. “No, I can satisfy you. I will overcome my white entitled laziness, and give 150%, and knock your socks off!” Instead of your, “I didn’t really mean it, I just offered cuz I knew you would turn me down.”
“It’s basically the equivalent of you inviting me over for an extravagant Shabbos lunch.”
Bud: “You had your chance to help me years ago, but instead chose your God. Some friend you turned out to be.”
