Like Ham and Eggs?

One of my friends mentions that he has the capacity to listen to ideas to contrary to his own beliefs; and since he shares his house with another friend of mine with whom, I believe, he shares hardly any belief, I nod appreciatively. That is, till I ask him, in the few months of house-sharing with this friend, what ideas has he changed? And he replies, “None”.

Another acquaintance has these gems she keeps coming with, “I wonder why are rich people more beautiful than poor people.” On hearing about the KFC food-poisoning case in Sydney she goes, “Oh everything from the west of Sydney is like that – a little worse.”

I think I am enjoying the fact that these two people are starting to date.
