We’re not getting married. She’s just coming to the opera with me as a favor.
Brittany
Well, see if she might want to be engaged for a while. That would be totally above and beyond for the movie.
Me
Yeah, that’s not a thing normal people do, so no.
Brittany
You’re no fun. Gotta run, but you better up your post quota because you’re lagging behind.
Me
Behind who?
Brittany
I don’t know … the actors who have a future in Hollywood?
Me
Damn, that was cold.
Brittany
You don’t pay me to be warm and fuzzy. Now, get posting.
Me
How about I disappear for a while to build the suspense? Maybe my absence will get people talking. Create a bunch of hype. And also, make it seem like I’m really busy preparing for my new role (which I am).
Brittany
Is this your way of trying to get out of doing a bunch of stuff you don’t want to do?
Me
Maybe, but it’s a little bit brilliant, no?
Brittany
No.
Me
Fine. Just took a shot of me at my desk. Posting … now.
I snap a pic, then post it on Instagram with the caption: Working harder than I ever have before to prepare for my upcoming role. Living, breathing, and eating SETI research. I’m going to disappear for a while so I can really focus. #SETIrocks #galaxystudios #methodactingforthewin

Seriously, dude?
