The Extra

Dave is an “extra” kind of person. He has a double of everything in his home. From double locks, double razors and double packs of toilet paper to double cartons of milk, double toothpastes and double oven toasters.

For Dave, nothing beats being prepared. In case something happens to the first item, there is still an extra one. For example, there was that time when Dave was reading a book and he accidentally spilled coffee on it. It was soaked through. And though it was Dave’s favourite book, he wasn’t worried about ruining that copy for he had an extra one, coffee stain free.

Dave also has double portable power generators in case the other one breaks down when the electricity hasn’t come back on yet. Most people would think Dave is a weird kind of guy, crazy even. But to his friends, Dave is just a regular guy, albeit overly cautious and obsessive compulsive at most.

Owning double items of everything has its advantages too. Dave never runs out of anything and he doesn’t ever want to. Just the other day, Dave bought two extra bottles of Listerine just because he kept spilling it when he brushed his teeth. Dave is an “extra” extraordinary kind of guy.
