We Were On A BREAK!

hmm. Ross's line from Friends if I recall correctly.

I was just watching tv and two of the characters decided to take a break in their relationship and said, "People always say that, but we really mean it. Let's just take a short break." The way they said it you knew that they were really breaking up though. Interesting. I always thought, "Let's take a break" really meant just that. A break. Not, break up. See when I say, let's take a break, that means I'm really pissed at you right now and am contemplating actions that may send me to the state penitentiary so get the f$%^ out of my face before I stab out your eyes with this plastic fork. However, I want to see you in two weeks when that feeling has subsided.

This may explain why in the past my exes have completely freaked out when I suggested taking a break. They have also hid all the sharp objects in the room, I didn't really need an explanation for that though.

See when I want to break up I just say, get out. In fact one time I pulled out my lease and said, "Interesting I just realized your name isn't on this." To which he said, "What does that mean?" and I replied, "that means get out". He started whining about something, I don't know what because I wasn't really paying attention, and finally I was like, "Hey. Are you through because I have a lot of stuff to do." Break. Pht. Who says let's take a break? That's just pure laziness. That's like you're just too lazy or incompetent to finish your sentence with 'up'. How much energy could that possibly take? It's one syllable people.
