Gender Bender

There's this song that always cracks me up when I think about it or when it comes up on the player on it's random run. It comes on in the info as "Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham - Twisted". It goes back to a funny incident where I was talking to my sister about that song. It goes something like this:

Me: Ei this song is nice. .
Sis: Yea. .
Me: Got a nice country-ish twang to it
Sis: Uh huh (I don't quite remember what she was saying up to this point really . .)
Me: I like the lady's voice. .Lindsey Buckingham. .Never heard of her before. .But sounds familiar
Sis: Lindsey is they GUY. .
Me: WHAT ! ? Then the lady is STEVIE ? !
Sis: Yeah she's the Fleetwood Mac singer. .*sings Gypsy
Me: HUH ? SERIOUS ! ?!
Sis: Yea! LOL
Me: HUH ? (I was still sure she was fahking with me)

Anyways, this went on for a couple more years that I thought my sister was messing with my head until I discovered for myself who Stevie Nicks was when she was mentioned in an obscure movie called "Mr. Wrong" (you can watch it on instant NetFlix. .Pretty funny. .Ellen DeGeneres).

Would've been a totally awesome YMLL ! ?!11?// moment.

So it was just a pretty funny confusion thing. I was befuddled. I was sure they were doing that intentionally to twist my mind. That the name of the song was "Twisted" made me certain of this.

Good Morning !

Y'know what I really hate? I hate it when I wake up from a nap at sayyy. . the EVENING (this part is bolded underlined capped because it's important later on) and someone who's met you for the first time says: "Good morning !". .

I got a kick out of that. Srsly. And not because they say it in a way that is laced with "better than thou"-ness and implications that you've wasted the entire day just laying on the couch. It's because they meant to say it in a sarcastic way. Well the jokes on them! It's not sarcastic at all. And I really hate it when people are trying to be so blatantly sarcastic. Really ! It's even in wikipedia. Check it out:

"Morning may also be used in a strictly personal sense, to refer to the period immediately following waking up, irrespective of the current time of day. In this sense, morning encompasses the (mostly menial) prerequisites for full productivity and life in public."

So HAH ! The next time you want to try to be sarcastic and diss someone waking up in the evening, please refrain and remember this little rant you read right here ! Because you may failzorrs.
