Tapping on glass

One of my favorite moments stories, culminating in the sounds of the digital fauna known as angry birds, took place when I had four to five roommates in murray hill , all impromptu back in 2014. I had just moved back to NY and was briefly roommate number 3, or 4, at my life partner then girlfriends  . She already had a main roommate. Naturally i shared her room. We soon had a roommate sharing her roommates room too and our mutual friend colloquially  Other Meehow  because we share a first name. 

So one day, we are partaking in our crowded duplex activities, when , all of us not accounted for in the living room, we or at first just in my head , hear taps on glass, aka iphone clicks. Then more taps. Rapid. Then pause. Is solwojw connected to our blue tooth radio? No no ons on the couch crew. Then we hear, noe just me t this point, angry birds as in yea the game. Ok no onr here playing it for sure. 

Ok haha we deduce, one of us upstairs is playing angry birds while connectef t the bluetooth slezkers . I go upsyairs. Not in his room. Oh hello the bathroom is occupied . So the only truly private room is the bathroom and turns out our roomie is playing this game at this particular time . Absolutely hilarious 😂.

Beautiful really. And one moment which got so much greatet when he  came out of the bathroom and we all shared a good roaring laugh at this
