J: “I hate tomatoes.”
W: “Really? I hate tomatoes too but I like ketchup.”
J: “You people that only like one or the other are the real weirdos.”
W: “Ketchup and tomatoes are not the same.”
J: “I hate all things tomato-e. They are both in the tomato family.”
W: “But you can like one and not the other. It's like liking steaks but not—”
J: “—Hamburgers?”
W: “—no—like a steak all mashed up and ground into a paste. Like a steak shake.”
J: “There's no such thing.”
W: “Because no one likes it!”
J: “But there are people who like ketchup! That's a false analogy because steak shakes don't exist!”
W: “It makes sense.”
J: “No it doesn't. You need to come up with a better analogy your analogy sucks.”
Pause.
W: “Shut up.” (Puts on headphones to block out laughter).
