Guy 1: What are you doing here, every day 6am?

Guy 2: (sitting on floor, looks up from newspaper) Whaddya mean? What are you doing here?

Guy 1: I'm working out. Exercising.

Guy 2: I am too (picks up paper again, gulps thick shake-like drink)

Guy 1: Yea. (looks at couple muffins on guy's lap, shakes head)

I'm totally with lazy dad. What's wrong with our relieving stress? It's sad some guys havce to lie to their partners about going to the gym, etc just to relax. But you do what you have to.
