      That’s nothing!

      Ever seen a group of guys stuck in a terminal one-downsmanship spiral of mutual unaccountability?

        That reminds me of a story, buddy and me fell overboard and when someone threw us a lifesaver he bet me I couldn’t lap the boat before getting rescued. Long story short we did six laps and we’re both dead now.
