A zany conversation with a friend last night resulted in this submission to I Can Has Cheezburger? (which, in case you didn’t know, is “lolcats tagged for your convenience”).
Oi, soon to be part of the latest web meme.

My coworker Andy blogged His Ideal Fight. I think men are at a disadvantage when it comes to fantasy fighting, even if the demographics around slaughter movies and pile-’o-corpses video games suggests otherwise. Women have deeply repressed desires to kick the shit out of someone(s), but they’ve been so effectively de-socialized regarding violence that these desires are left to grumble and stomp around in their alligator brains.
My dream fight, like Andy’s, starts with a real incident: Recently, while walking my dog, I was followed for a couple of blocks (weirdly and scarily deserted in the middle of the day) by a psychotic junkie screaming threats and invective. Most of the Psychotic Junkie’s dialog below is from the real incident, except for his screaming.

Cue danger-type music (Jaws-ish, but not Jaws)
Camera: pan to show deserted streets, gradually pull in as junkie approaches the soon-to-be victim (me)

Psychotic Junkie: Where ya going, ya ****ing **nt? Why the hurry? (peals of evil Psychotic Junkie laughter)
Jen and Oi walk faster. (This is a theatrical device known as “suspense”.) Continue reading »

…because the Post-It note un-stuck from my monitor and re-stuck to Oi’s tennis ball, which rolled under the bed, thus locking me out of my bank account for a week. (Previously, I hadn’t thought anything was capable of sticking to the Oister’s saliva-encrusted tennis ball.)
