Embracing Change and New Beginnings
Harper:
Why are you dressed like that?
Charlie:
I don't work here anymore. I quit working for Rick. Starting over. At 28. Actually, I'm a temp, which is technically lower on the totem pole than an assistant, which is kind of a kick in the nuts. But it's, um, kind of cool. I get to see a bunch of different jobs. Find out what I actually like. I like you. So, so much. You're not hard to get at all. You're hard to earn. It's so much better.

Harper:
It's just like, I worked so hard at being this great assistant and making sure she was happy that... I don't know, feels like I might have lost any writing skill I ever had.

Over-Dicking Around Explained
Harper:
I'm so sorry. I got here so early that I thought had time to dick around then I went to that gift shop, then I lost track of time and suddenly I was late.
Charlie:
That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. That is not a real thing.
Harper:
Yes, it is. It's the over-dick-around thing. I over-dicked it.

The Illogic of Playing Hard-to-Get
Harper:
Hard-to-get makes no sense. It's evolutionarily unsound. Why would a caveman want a cave woman who was like Go get me food, and when you come back maybe there will be a cave for you, maybe there won't be. Men should want women that are gonna keep the coziest, warmest caves. Men need shelter. I am guaranteeing shelter.

Misunderstood Preferences in Dating and Sports
Harper:
Guys think that they like girls who like sports. What they actually like is a girl in a very tight sports jersey, serving them wings and getting the terminology wrong. Guys like girls who like guys who like sports.
