Rules of Unattraction

"What does it mean?"
"Well...it doesn't have to mean anything. I mean, being attracted to someone is no big deal, it's just an attraction. We just... we have to agree not to act on it."
"Okay, how do we do that?"
"Well, we just took the first step; we took the power out of it."
"Uh huh. I think we need to take the second step."
"Yeah. Okay. We need to counteract it. We just need to avoid all situations where we find each other most attractive. We need, like... rules of unattraction."
"Okay, like, never be alone together in places like the bathroom at the Planet.
"Right, never be alone together."
"Especially never be alone together in places where there's like a bed or a couch..."
"Right. Or a table, or a floor, or the backseat of a car..."
"Oh that'd be good. That wouldn't be good."
"Okay you need to stop showing up at the Planet after you've worked out, when you're all sweaty, and your veins are popping all over the place."
"You like that? Tonya hates that. Alright, well then you can't wear those shirts anymore."
"What shirts?"
"You know, the ones where they cling to you in some places and fall off of you in others."
"Hm."
"Fuck you."
"Okay, that's totally against the rules."
