Honest, true friendship

Two Saturdays ago, I was coming home late night on the Orange Line in the direction of West Falls Church. One sloppy drunk guy turns to a relatively sober friend to lament what he believed was a missed hook-up opportunity with a total stranger who got on the train.
Sloppy: "Man! If we had just been more persistent she totally would have stayed!"
Friend: "Dude, if we had been any more persistent, she would have called the police."
