"Do you find him an entertaining companion?"
Millicent yawned. "Mr. Carmody? No, not particularly."
"A dull young man, I should have thought."
"Deadly."
"Vapid."'
"Vap to a degree."
"And yet you went riding with him last Tuesday."
"Anything's better than riding alone."
"You play tennis with him, too."
"Well, tennis is a game I defy you to play by yourself."
(from Summer Lightning, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)
