It's funny because it's true

Quick story illustrating my roommate's opinion about me:

Meredith's friend Vanessa is flying to France to run the Lyon Marathon and to spend a week traveling with us. "I think you'll like her. You're both runners and speak Spanish. Plus you sort of eat the same," he told me.

"Oh really? She eats a lot of chocolate and cheese?" I responded.

"No, I mean messily."
