Lively up yourself and don't be no drag

Had an interesting encounter the other night. I was coming home waiting for the bus and I saw this guy I used to work with. Normally I would have avoided eye contact with him and attempting to move on but this was impossible as he was taking the same bus as me. I had just come from the beer store and he had as well. I always drink microbrews and he commented on my choice. He said he usually drinks budweiser because its cheap which I detest. Still there was a strange unspoken understanding between us which I had never felt before. As if we both knew we were going home alone to drink a bunch of beer and a strange sort of kinship because of it.
