Person One: I love/hate playing F, Marry, Kill…
Person Two: I never heard of it.
Person One: really? It’s fun to play, but someone always crosses a line, and then it becomes uncomfortable.
Person One: Like when my wife listed three of her friends.
Person One: or her sistersPerson Two: Oh, that’s brilliant!

Person Two: “jesus, buddha, mohammed”
Person Two: “sister teresa, ghandi, idi amin”Person One: I’m not playing with you.
Person Two: “your mom, your maternal grandmother, your paternal grandmother”
Person One: I like the inclusion of idi amin though…
Person One: I’m trying to decide which dead grandmother I’m going to F.
Person One: I’m definitely F’ing Buddha, but do I marry jesus or mohammed????Person Two: Jesus. he forgives.
Person One: for the win!
Person Two: how are we estimating “average cost” in the calculation in cell cc119? i don’t get it.
