Yesterday went on a blind date, and the other person was a girl who looked very quiet. To ease the awkwardness, I decided to show my sense of humor and love for life.
She asked me, “Do you have any money-burning hobbies?” I didn’t think twice and, being honest, said, “I have rhinitis.” The girl was stunned and asked how that burns money. I counted on my fingers and explained, “Look, I need to use a pack of tissues every day, and I also have to buy various nasal salts and sprays. The key is that the tissues have to be those with a cream content; otherwise, my nose will get chapped. Over a year, the resources I consume for my nose could support a small paper mill.” After hearing this, the girl was silent for a long time and finally managed to say, “Well, you really... are quite wasteful with paper.”
