A: Hey, can I ask you about something?

B: Sure, what’s up?

A: I just met a new co-worker, and when we shook hands, it really hurt!

B: Did he squeeze your hand really hard?

A: Yeah! And he shook my arm really hard, too.

B: Let me guess. Is he an American?

A: Yeah, he is!

B: Sometimes Americans give really hard handshakes.

A: Why would they do that?

B: Some American men think that shaking hands really hard shows that you’re very manly.

A: But his hand is bigger than mine! What should I do?

B: You don’t have to do anything. Just give a firm shake and then forget about it. No big deal!

B: Hey, Daniel. Some of my friends are coming over to my place on Saturday. You want to come?

A: Sure, sounds great! Should I bring anything?

B: Well, I think some people are bringing some snacks, but you don’t have to bring anything if you don’t want to.

A: Nah, I’ll bring something. If other people are bringing some snacks, I’ll bring some drinks.

B: Sounds good, thanks!

A: Oh, by the way, can I bring someone? My friend is in town visiting me this week.

B: Yeah, sure! The more the merrier!

A: And one more question – what time?

B: I think people will start showing up around 5:00. So you can come whenever.

A: Cool. See you on Saturday!
