aquarium people suck
last night Hugsband told me, “you know new girl Jen at work? today she wore a t-shirt that said ‘gay? fine by me’.” I laughed aloud for several minutes. I was walking down the street by myself this morning, thought of it again, and burst out laughing. I mean, seriously, how foolish is that?
I suggested that Hugsband make her some more t-shirts so that she can announce her feelings about other groups.
‘black? I’m down with that.’
‘mexican? burritos are awesome.’
‘luthern? you make me uncomfortable.’
I also found it funny to imagine reactions she could get from gay people on the street. like, “oh my god, thank you so much! I have been waiting my whole life for a privileged white girl from the midwest to legitimize my existence.”
“thank goodness! I was afraid that we couldn’t be BFF’s.”
the other reason aquarium people suck, besides this ridiculous t-shirt, is because some of them get to go to the caribbean for 10 days to snorkle and catch iguanas and they don't even bring their wives. and they act like it's work and get paid for it and have to take days off when they get back, like, 'OMG, I worked so hard at my super challenging job and I even got a little sunburnt, so I am going to take 2 days off to recover.' duh.
