unpopular opinions

Do you think people are too sensitive? Or that Superman isn't so super? Think cats aren't cute? The Beatles are overrated? Love pineapple on pizza? Maybe you just don't like chips rly. Even the best of us have some controversial opinions. Let people know what a monster you are.

Excellent. I know some people I can definitely lord that over.

Sounds familiar. A couple of close friends and whole bunch of people out to hurt you. You sound like a... tough kid than I was though. You'll do all right.

I did have a few good years there. After high school mostly. Had my looks. People liked me. Worked on my social skills. It's good to know I'm not too rusty.

[skeddie]

I don't feel tough most of the time. ...but I did kick ass in a rock fight once!

Do you gotta have good looks for people to like you when you're older?

[horticulturalist]

Me either. But I after a while, you look at all the stuff you walked away from and maybe that counts for something. See! Survived a rock fight. That's gotta earn some toughness points.

No. Not... not exactly. But it sure as hell doesn't hurt.

[skeddie]

Hahahaha! My friend Richie's gonna have a bad time then, he's really ugly.

[horticulturalist]

Harsh.
A lot can change after 12. Don't count Richie out yet.

[skeddie]

He came here to talk shit about me so I can count him out as much as I want.

[horticulturalist]

He did?
He sounds like kind of a shitty friend. Why would he do that?

[skeddie]

Yeah, he's the guy who came in after me to say Akuma was stupid. That's my favorite character to play with in Street Fighter. That's a video game.

I dunno. He's always messing with people. Me the most though. But we have a lot of fun too. We go to the arcade a lot, that's how he knows my favorite character. And we hang out in a clubhouse with the rest of our friends, that's pretty cool.

[horticulturalist]

Wow. Every bit of that makes me feel old.

I get it. I've had friends like that. Being a bit of a dick is, weirdly, how some people tell you they like you.

[skeddie]

You should try going to the arcade sometime. It's fun!

Well duh. He's my friend. We wouldn't be friends if he hated me. I mean, it's annoying as hell, but I'm good at getting him back.

[horticulturalist]

Yeah? What should I uhh... like what game should I play? Something for a real beginner.

Just checking. Not everybody can spot a friend who isn't actually a friend.

[skeddie]

Um... Pac Man! Or Tetris! Or Frogger!

I'm pretty sure he's my best friend so I think I'll be okay. Thanks for looking out for me.

[horticulturalist]

Am I gonna need quarters? I'll have to get some quarters.

Oh. Well. You're welcome.
What's your name again?

[skeddie]

Yeah. You're gonna need a shitload of quarters. Especially if you're not very good, which you won't be 'cause you're new.

Oh! Sorry. My name's Eddie. My mom would kill me for talking to strangers but you seem okay. What's your name?

[horticulturalist]

Good to know. I wonder if I can still get into my bank account.

Nice to meet you Eddie.
I'm Larry.

[skeddie]

Because you're old? Probably. If you have your account number you can still get in. I have a savings account so I can tell you the latest. Also I volunteer as a form of ID if you need it.

[horticulturalist]

Well. That. And because I haven't shown my face—or any other face— in a bank for some fifty years. Hope I have any of that paper work still.

Maybe I'll take you up on that.
We need to verify your ID Mister Trainor.
Just call Eddie.

[skeddie]

You don't have to show your face! You can do the drive-through banking if it helps you feel better.

Oh sorry! My last name is Kaspbrak. That'll help you find me better and verify my identity too.

[horticulturalist]

I sure as shit hope not.
Maybe I can get them to send me a bank card...

Is that Polish?

[skeddie]

I dunno how those work, but yeah! You got an address?

Dude! How did you know? My grandma told me that our last name used to be [he pauses, scrunching his face in effort to get this right] Kabaciński [a pleased look at himself] back in the old days but it got changed.

[horticulturalist]

Me either.
Yeah. I guess I do. It's not mine exactly but. I can collect mail. I think.

I spent some time in Europe when I was young.

[skeddie]

Gimme your address sometime! I'll send you a postcard.

Cool! Did you see any castles?

[horticulturalist]

Yeah?
1888 Danny St. Covington, Ohio. I'll send one back. I've got some vintage ones. You like planes?

None that were still standing by the time I got there.

[skeddie]

Fuck yeah I like planes! I've only got postcards from where I live, I hope that's okay.

That's depressing, dude.

[horticulturalist]

I used to be a test pilot. I flew all the expensive planes and fighter jets the Air Force had. They were bitchin'.
I'd like that. I don't get to see a lot of new places.

Sorry. Most of my stories are.
