Summary

Today’s expression and dialog: I got a beef with you. Hey! I’ve got a beef with you. What? What did I do? You used my cell phone without asking. Oh, hey, man! Sorry about that. It was an emergency~ Sometimes people do stupid things. And sometimes those stupid things make us really mad. I was playing my favorite CD and my friend asked if he could borrow it. I told him that it was my favorite CD. He said, "Just for a few days. I'll return it next week." I finally said okay. The next week came...nothing. Two weeks. Nothing. I called him. "Hey! Where's my CD?" "Oh, Shane! Sorry. I'll get it back to you. Don't worry! It's really great!" After two more weeks I finally went to HIS HOUSE! I was really mad! If he liked the CD so much, he should have bought it! When you are REALLY mad at your friend for doing something stupid, use today's expression!
