One night Jeremy was driving a number of us around Shoreline, and the decision was made to see if [[Lukas]] was available to hang out. On [[the Peters]]' doorstep [[Rama]] called Jeremy's cell phone, and two simultaneous conversations ensued. As Lukas explained that he wasn't going to go out that night, Jeremy's conversation with Rama similarly winded down without result. As Lukas' door was closing and Jeremy's cell phone turned off, he explained that he had used the same instance of saying "bye" to end both conversations. Brett then commented that this was "like killing two birds... with one phone." This resulted in an eruption of [[Jeremy cackling]] that lasted several minutes. | One night Jeremy was driving a number of us around Shoreline, and the decision was made to see if [[Lukas]] was available to hang out.
