She bailed on our dinner plans.

 

How are you doing anything tonight?

Well, I'm heading to the park to play Frisbee with some friends. Do you wanna come?

> Sounds fun! What time?

Like an hour or so?

Who should we invite to our dinner party?

> Well, definitely Beth and Jerry. They're so much fun.

Oh, yeah, totally. Hmm, what do you think about Tom? How about Tom, too?

> Tom? No way. Don't even bother.

Why not? I like Tom.

> Yeah, he's nice, but he's a total flake. Inviting him will be a waste of an invitation and your time.

Hmm, yeah, you're right. OK, so no Tom. How about Rhonda?

> Yeah! Totally. Let's invite Rhonda.
