Desert

Hedgy: Hey man, what’s up?
Investy: Not much, what are you up to?
Hedgy: I wanna ask you a favour, actually. Do you see Sue Prime over there?
Investy: Yeah, don’t really know her, though.
Hedgy: You don’t have to really. But how about you help her out with some water?
Investy: She doesn’t have enough water? We are in the desert!
Hedgy: No, I think she is ok for now. But you know, it’s the desert. You can never have enough water. Come on man, you don’t trust me? We know each other for such a long time, man!
Investy: Actually we just met last week.
Hedgy: Ah come one, don’t worry! If she can’t give it back, I will get you some water. Promise!
Investy: Alright, Alright. Do you have enough water in case something goes wrong?
Hedgy: Of course, no worries! On a completely separate note, I need to borrow some water, you get double back …

Hedgy: Um, oh, I’m kinda, sorta, totally out, too, man. So is Sue by the way.
Investy: What? Where is all the stuff?
Hedgy: Guess it was pretty stupid to give water to Sue and her friends. Or to those friendly looking guys I met yesterday. You can’t trust people these days!
Investy: What about the stuff you had saved in case the deal with Sue goes bad?
Hedgy: Oh, man, that is a simple misunderstanding. When I said “saved”, I actually meant “will borrow from you later”. Just bad communication, you know, happens all the time.
Investy: Are you crazy? We both have no water? We are in the desert!
Hedgy: Shit mean, don’t you have any reserves?
Investy: Uh, oh …
