It’s great how a generic status quo forever story with tropey characters can turn interesting when instead of school shenanigans, it’s two wage workers living largely lives of everyday misery. Or maybe I’m just aged out of finding the former relatable, and aged in to the grind of wage labor.

Adding smoking into it and the… 20 year age gap sure was a decision. But I suppose the smoking part is something that happens every day. And smokers probably have it easier to actually talk to strangers?

Still, despite its flaws, it’s neat.
