Louisa: Is Scott coming too?
Jack: Said he might pop round later, but he’s off to the bank first
Louisa: There’s a cash machine near you!
Jack: Doesn’t use 'em. Says they’re too impersonal.
Louisa: Really? I like talking to as few people as possible.
Jack: It all goes back to this time when he was young and he decided his dream job was to sell condoms in public toilets
Louisa: That’s his dream job? Selling condoms?
Jack: Yeah, he gave a whole speech on it in Year 2. Reckons it’d be super-rewarding. Making people safe from STDs, but also bringing them pleasure...via ribs, flavours, and so on.
Louisa: True, I guess. But why especially in public toilets? I didn't think he even used toilets.
Jack: Yeah, but he's still fascinated by them. Like how in the desert they all sit around discussing snow.
Louisa: Do they?
Jack: So I've heard. Anyway, when he found out they have machines that do it, he was heartbroken...blames the condom machines for putting him out of a job. So yeah, he wants to make sure no one else suffers the same fate.
Louisa: He’s a surprisingly deep thinker, isn’t he
Jack: You should see him when he’s had too much sugar
Louisa: But wait a sec, he was really pleased about the new library check-out machines. They put Larry Flack out of a job.
Jack: Yeah, but school employees don’t have real feelings like you or I do
