Als parner van een Insead MBA-er krijgt ge soms nogal wat te horen van de mensen. In een moment van verveling heeft Alice (vriendin van Jon) zich bezig gehouden met het opschrijven van een aantal quotes die mensen (zowel studenten als andere partners) in de afgelopen maand gezegd hebben tegen haar. Weet niet of het vooral inside humor is maar in ieder geval ... here they are:
-"YOU DON'T WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND, YOUR GIRLFRIEND WANTS TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU" (Nikolai to Jon in front of other Insead guys)
-"YOU ARE DAMN LAZY. YOU GET UP LATE AND SIT ON YOUR ARSE ALL DAY. YOU SHOULD CLEAN THE FLAT AND IRON YOUR FLATMATE'S CLOTHES." (German Martin)
-"ARE YOU GETTING JEALOUS OF JON SPEAKING TO THAT GIRL? BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND-MANAGEMENT. IF YOU CONTROL HIM TOO MUCH HE'LL FREAK OUT AND LEAVE YOU..." (German Martin)
-"LEARNING EUROPEAN LANGUAGES SIMPLY ISN'T CHALLENGING ENOUGH FOR ME" (Indian girl from Summer Ball committee)
-"YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY CONSIDER GETTING A FULL-TIME MAID. PHILLIPINO ONES ARE THE CHEAPEST AS THEIR ENGLISH IS CRAP" (Insead partners meeting)
'- YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN WHAT YOUR BOYFRIEND WAS LIKE LAST TERM. HE'S MUCH BETTER-BEHAVED NOW YOU'RE HERE" (Nikolai)
'-ALICE, DO I HAVE PERMISSION TO GO WAKEBOARDING? AM I ALLOWED? (Jon to Alice in front of other Insead guys)
-"BEING A TEACHER JUST WOULDN'T SATISFY ME FINANCIALLY. HOW ON EARTH DO YOU MANAGE?" (Greek Alex)
-"ALICE, DON'T ACT OVERWHELMED BY PEOPLE'S WEALTH. AN MBA PARTNER MUST BE COMFORTABLE WITH OPPULENCE" (German Martin)
-"YOU'RE JUST A PRUDE IF YOU THINK 2 MBA STUDENTS HAVING SEX IN THE INSEAD TOILETS IS DISGUSTING" (Anil)
-"WHEN IS YOUR BOYFRIEND GOING TO MAKE AN HONEST WOMAN OUT OF YOU AND ACTUALLY PROPOSE?" (Moni)
-"SO YOU'RE JUST WAITING FOR THE DIAMOND RING AREN'T YOU" (Kais)
-(preceded by patronising 'aaahhhh' sound) "GOOD FOR YOU" (female MBA student commenting on my choice of profession)
