A few moments out of your day

From the next table over at lunch last week...

Guy #1: I bet they have big spiders in Rio.

Guy #2: No, they don't. I grew up in Brazil, and you don't have to worry about them.

Guy #1: I heard they have these giant spiders in Rio de Janeiro.

Guy #2: No, even at my grandfather's house, deep in the rain forest, you don't have big spiders. There's a lot of other things, like scorpions, but not spiders.

Guy #1: I could imagine being worried all the time about spiders.

Guy #1: What do you think of these jeans?

Guy #2: They are nice.

Guy #1: They're beach-washed. I wondered if I should wash them some more.

Guy #2: No, they look good as they are.
