At least he didn’t start talking about the little red-haired girl.

A little bit of CB, a little bit of PP; while I agree that he should wait until she’s done telling her story to say anything, she on the other hand could be a “teensy” nicer to him even if he does interrupt and go off on a tangent. And at the same time I don’t think the little red-haired girl would ever be nasty like Peppermint Patty; I like to think she must be as kindhearted as she’s beautiful.

Chuck wasn’t aware that you were finished. A simple misunderstanding, just like the one he described. So finish your story and get off his case.
