Can we just talk about we couples?

We couples are the absolute worst. What is a we couple, you ask? A we couple, as defined by Webster's dictionary (OK, maybe not Webster's, but it should totally be on Urban Dictionary), as a couple that can't do anything without the other. Literally anything from climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, to going to the bathroom. EVERY story told starts with "Well, we were..." and anytime one says we (as in "We will totally be there!") there is no question as to who the second part of that 'we' is. We really hate them.

Have you ever tried to have a normal everyday conversation with one or both parts of one?

"Oh hey! How are you?"
"We are doing great! How are you?"
"Oh, I'm good... So... What did you have for lunch?"
"We had a Chickfila! It was awesome! After that we ......"

Blah blah blah. We we we. We are sick of it. Be your own person! Eat lunch by your self! Or at least don't talk about it like you are joined at the hip. You have your own hips. Sharing hips is awkward. Period.

I understand that you are close. I understand that you love each other or think you love each other (here’s looking at you kids of the twitter generation...) but really? Really? I know you think the sun shines out of the others rear end, but it doesn’t. WE would really appreciate it if you decided to be your own people. Do life together. Enjoy that. Stop saying ‘we.’

We really appreciate your cooperation .

Well, shit. I promise that we are just besties.
