Once upon a time I lived with this guy and I did the grocery shopping, the cooking, and well, lots of stuff. We got into this huge argument one night because I brought home these round black bean chips that I KNEW he preferred. I don't remember how the whole thing started, but there were harsh words back and forth and my thread of the 'conversation' was that I really knew what he liked, knew what he wanted, and knew him as a person. Now, obviously this is a one sided re-creation, but I don't remember what his point was. Probably something like he was too deep to really know. Eh.
Anyway, this argument peaked with "YOU DON'T KNOW ME" "WHAT? I SO KNOW YOU -ROUND CHIP!!" At which point we cracked up laughing. whenever I remember this fight I think of Amy Poehler in Baby Mama. Now every time someone says "you don't know me" OR even "you don't understand" in whatever context, I think two things- Baby Mama, and "ROUND CHIP!" Whichever, the attitude is also there - eyes wide, no backing down.... yep.
