Girl 1: It’s so awkward when you hear somebody have sex. The other day my roommate came up to me and said she could often hear me having sex unless her music is blasting. That night she walked in on me and told me she wanted to turn her music off so she can go to sleep. She actually asked me not to moan too loud!
Girl 2: Yeah the other time I told my mom: “Yeah mom, like, I could hear you have sex last night… Our house is pretty small you know”

GIRL: “Oh! And what key is this one in?”
HEAD OF PERFORMANCE: “Well, you can see in the title that it says ‘Concerto No. 1 in D Major’, so one would reason that it is in D Major.”
GIRL: “Oh! Thanks!”
