Hello. Name please?
Winslow
Age?
18 and half, I suppose.
Aren't you too old to say fractions in your age?
Age is just a number. Get over it, Chief. I'm telling you my age and I shouldn't have to validate that for you.
Okay. Favorite color?
Blue. Isn't that lame? I'm a conformist when it comes to favorite colors. I wish maroon and shit-green got more of a chance in this world. I used to like teal, but I felt that was too non-conformist back in the day, so I got simple and predictable. Go figure. I get out of my safety zone, I get scared and go back to comfort. I sound like a true American.
Funny, aren't you?
Funny. No. Honest. Hell yea!
Name a good friend of yours.
Umm, let's go with Jesus.
Jesus? You don't know someone named Jesus.
Ha, do you know where I live?
Let's get serious, Winslow. Name a good friend of yours.
Okay, let's go with _____.
What do you like about _____?
They are honest and can hold a conversation. What else do you need in a friend?
Do you trust them?
I think so.
Why aren't you positive?
Nothing is certain in this world. This might be a weird way of see it, but I identify with my friends because I could stop talking to most of them, for years, and pick up where we left off. Of course I have friends just to have friends. Everyone does. At least I admit to it. All I know is that if I consider you a good friend of mine, you would know. You would know because I would make fun of you and you won't get mad. Making fun of people is just sugarcoating critiques. You would know because you know I would do anything for you because my friends are my life. You would know when we laugh, cry, dance, work and live. You would know that no matter the factors we are put in, we will stay in touch and still be able to share a laugh or discuss a band or debate about politics. You would know.
What did you do today?
I hung out with my friends Chris, Henry and Kat. I don't know Kat as much, but she can definitely become one of my best friends because she is the best thing to happen to Chris. He's happy and if a good friend is happy, then I'm happy. Henry is one of my best friends and he knows. We both know it. We're bros.
I've got no more questions for this session. You may go.
Wait! What's your favorite color?
Umm, blue.
Damn, you conformists!
