Jeff is in the living room playing video games. His friend Tom bursts into the apartment really excited.
Tom: Dude, I had the greatest day ever?
Jeff: Oh?
Tom: Like seriously, it was the greatest day ever.
Jeff: What happened?
Tom: So I went to the vending machine at school and I put it 60 cents for a candy bar and THREE Candy bars fell out!
Jeff: Okay.
Tom: Three!
Jeff: Yeah.
Tom: So, I had the greatest day ever.
Jeff: Because you paid 60 cents for three candy bars?
Tom: 20 cents each! I totally cheated the system!
Jeff: Is that it?
Tom: Is that it? Is that it? Dude, that's it, and it was awesome.
Jeff: That does not sound the greatest day ever. It sounds like something cool happened but there are so many other things which could classify as the best thing ever.
Tom: You do realize I've been incarcerated as a Prisoner of War for the past 10 years and I just got out this morning right?
Jeff: Oh yeah, I forgot, this must be the best day ever then.
Tom: Yes, indeed.

Screw extra candy bars. It would be the greatest day ever if I could get even one out of a vending machine for just sixty cents!
Something tells me Jeff was in the exact same place, doing the exact same thing ten years ago when he last saw Tom.
