Usually it's lazyJ and I that post our brilliant IM conversations, but that's not to say Tom isn't a messaging comedian either. He just doesn't have the pleasure of sitting at a computer bored all day as part of his daily routine. The other night I was having a bit of an emotional breakdown and Tom came to the rescue via text message. The background is that there's this issue, which is really a non-issue, yet I've gotten way too worked up about it for anyone's good and I can't seem to let it go. There's no possible good outcome yet I can't stop thinking about it constantly.

Does that make any sense? Yeah, didn't think so. So here it is:

(blah blah blah, secret stuff, blah blah)
Tom: So that should give you hope.
Me: Why? That just means I'm being retarded about the whole thing.
Tom: You are plenty retarded all the time, you're just aware of it right now.
Me: Thanks man, that made me laugh.
Tom: No problem, retard.
