Conversation of the Day: Weddings

Conversation with the speechie on the bus (who is now officially scared of me).

P: I'm probably going to head home in January. My friend has just recently gotten engage so I'll be able to attend her engagement party and get married around the same time as well.

Me: Ah engagements..... Why is everybody getting engage?

P (in consoling mode): Don't worry, it's not as fantastic as it sounds.

Me: Well, actually, I meant it more on a "OMG why is everybody getting fricking engage" level.

P: Oh.
