38. I overhear you ordering your coffee in a coffee shop and I’m trying to place your voice when I realize that you’re the phone sex operator I’ve been calling on and off for the last few months but the realization startles me so much that I accidentally spill my drink on you and you’re pissed
39. I hire you to be the stripper at my friend’s bachelor/ette party and you’re the T.A. for my favourite class
41. I’m at the 24/7 gym at 2 in the morning and I thought I was alone so I’m singing in the showers, but when you start singing with me, I’m startled and slip so the first time we meet, we’re both wet and naked
42. I’m talking about how “anyone could make this” at an art gallery and I didn’t realize you’re the artist
43. my family moves in the middle of my senior year of high school and now I’m the first real threat to you for valedictorian and you make it very clear that you’re going to do anything to win but I haven’t worked this hard to lose it all now

49. I mistake you for someone else from behind and jump on your back so we both fall down and you’re reasonably pissed

51. an old high school rival snidely asks if I’m still single ‘like always’ when we bump into each other at the bar, so I grab you and introduce you as my significant other … except that you’re my rival’s S.O. and they demand an explanation and fuck

55. my twin clearly did something to piss you off, but you obviously don’t know I’m a twin so I’m listening to you tell me how much of an asshole I am and am very amused and it’s making you angrier
56. you called me mean things when we were in kindergarten and then moved away but we just crashed into each other on campus and I’m short with you because I haven’t forgotten

62. you set off the fire alarm and I have a test tomorrow, and I might strangle you
63. sometimes I steal flowers from your garden on my way to the cemetery, but today you’ve caught me and have demanded to come with me to make sure the “[person] is [attractive] enough to warrant flower theft” and I’m trying to figure out how to break it to you that we’re on our way to a graveyard (credit)
67. apparently you think that I’m your friend’s ex and you’ve been prank calling me for weeks but it’s not funny anymore so I’m tracking you down
70. you’re planning my best friend’s wedding which we find out the day after you drunkenly hit on me at a bar and I reject you
71. you’re famous and you want to hide out in my bookstore which is fine except the stupid paparazzi won’t leave and now there’s a photo of us in the tabloids and they’re printing misinformation and why the fuck won’t you clear this up on your twitter account
72. you just hit me in the face with a snowball, what do you have to say for yourself, fucker?

76. it’s my birthday and you just fucking ruined my party and I don’t even know you

92. you’re my best friend’s sibling / my sibling’s best friend and we’ve never gotten along, so of course it had to be you to find me stuck outside my house naked even though we haven’t seen each other in over two years
95. you just witnessed me kill a guy and I have a really, really good reason for it, please don’t call the cops
98. I’ve been hired to kill you, but you don’t seem that concerned???
