Sometimes a closet is just a closet

Sitting drinking coffee, I hear one man say to another:

"I saw you come out of the closet."

"You saw me come out of the closet?"

"Yep."

"Ah. But did you see me go into the closet?"

As a writer, I am much taken with the levels in this conversation, though in context it was clear the speakers were making no allusions to a metaphorical closet except maybe in that final line. Sometimes a closet is just a closet.


The final snippet: Will a firepit fit in your car? (one friend said to another apropos of nothing)
