[NSFW] Love-making, in M.B.A lingo
She really had taken her M.B.A course to heart. Sex for her was like a business model.
We did some swift, efficient asset stripping, carried out the required amount of research and development, and then I was invited to position my product in her niche market. I did my best to satisfy her high demand with as much supply as I could muster. After a period of violently fluctuating market penetration, the bubble finally burst and we sank back, our sales forces completely spent.
“I’ll show you your room,” she said ten seconds after the market had collapsed.
I’m a big fan of Wodehouse, specially the Jeeves series. Although the plots of most of the books remain the same (featuring a damsel in distress, a chivalrous hero, a really smart butler and a really terrifying aunt), his language makes me chuckle out loud every time I read them.
This excerpt is from A year in the merde; a novel which in its comic relief is superb even for Wodehouse fans like me (except perhaps if you’re a French). I’m only halfway through, but if you like reading humour this should be on top of your list.
