What's up? You sound a little down in the dumps?
I quarreled with my roommate last night. He is really stubborn!
Calm down. Shouting won't help.
He is really outrageous!
What happened?
I went back home last night,you know,tired as a dog. So I took a quick shower and went to bed.
I couldn't fall asleep because Brown was there in the living room,playing his stupid stereo so loud.
I kindly told him to turn it down a little bit. He shouted at me.
What? He can't do this to you.
Well,he did it anyway. Then he came in my room and shot all the shit,blah,blah,blah...you know.
What did you do?
I shouted back,of course.
Hold it,Mike. You won't accomplish anything by hollering at him,right? You are all worked up now. Why not wait until you cool down a bit?
What would you do if you were in my shoes?
Just stay cool,you know. When you get back home tonight,tell him you didn't mean to quarrel with him.
No way,kid! I mean it's just not my fault.
I know. It wouldn't hurt much to say sorry first.
And after that,you can casually mention the problem. I'm sure he will cooperate.
I'm too angry to do that!
