Quote:

The phone calls kept coming at weird intervals, almost as if Rodney had written a program to randomize them. The first day it was kind of endearing. The second day John answered only when the number of Rodney's phone calls reached a prime number, and on impulse, he got on FTD and shipped Rodney a cactus for next day delivery with a note saying that plants liked it when you talked to them. The third day he hung up on Rodney fifteen times, and then unplugged his phone. An hour later, General Landry came down to his office with a Post-It note in his hand. The rigid smile on his face made John squirm in his cheap desk chair.

Recommended because...

There's nothing better in this world than John and Rodney sending each other ridiculous crap in the mail, playing video games until they drop, and finally having hot, hot sex.
