an actual conversation excerpt
Dec. 7th, 2004 11:00 amme: "What if I got all skinny from having two jobs where I run around all day, and wound up being really hot?"
him: "I don't like hot chicks. They're all, 'pay attention to me,' and I'm all, 'but you're vapid.'"
me: "But what if I were a hot chick?"
him: "No way, man, hot chicks are dumb."
me, resigned. "So if I got way hot I'd lose my conversational ability?"
him: "It just wouldn't be the same."
me, playing the What A Chick Is Supposed To Say card (for me, a last-ditch resort): "So... in other words... I'm totally not hot."
him, realizing what card I've just played: "I know there isn't an answer to that."
me: "Come on."
him, singing a quote from a Strong Bad Email: "But she's only kinda hot so she won't mess around with other guys!"
me, baffled: "Huh?"
But I kinda know what he's saying. Dude, I hate hot chicks too.
So we went out last night and returned all our deposit bottles so we could buy ice cream and make milkshakes at 11 last night. Because I can't risk becoming a hot chick and losing my boyfriend. What would I do with myself then?
Ahhh... life is, above all else, totally surreal.
And now, for your reading pleasure, I present to you my favorite recent Penny Arcade strip:
On Discomfort (making fun of video games, of course.)

Do you hear what I'm telling you? It will be an ordeal. Canaries will go in first. Accidents will happen, and men will die.
