The Pet Peeve

Real conversations:
___________________________________________________________________

Person 1: I need to get a new laptop.

Me: Okay, what kind are you going to get?

Person 1: I really want an IMac.

Me: Why?

Person 1: Because EVERYONE has an IMac!

___________________________________________________________________

Person 2: I NEED to have a pair of those gladiator sandals but they're so expensive!

Me: Why do you need to have gladiator sandals? Why don't you buy a pair of sandals that look better on your feet and cost half the price? (Insert confused face)

Person 2: But EVERYONE has gladiator sandals now, I just NEED to have a pair.

Ugh, I hate that. No one even BOTHERS to lie and try to make it seem like they actually want that product because THEY like it.
