I thought it would be funnier.

Bob and I ate dinner outside tonight and when Bob was carrying his dinner out – when he got to the door of the shop I heard some loud expletives and he stomped back into the house. I ran into the shop to see what happened, looking for salad strewn across the floor or a drink dumped onto his plate. All I saw were a few drips on the floor. He came out of the house and said, “I almost lost it all.” “Oh,” I said, “I ran in here. I thought it would be funnier.”
