Friday, March 18, 2005 Advice for boys Last night, at a sports bar in Burbank (surprisingly uncrowded for St. Patty's), a guy tried to pick up on me by asking me what I was going to play on the jukebox. When I told him that I wanted to play the Scissor Sisters, he said, "You know, they're not Elton John." "Yes, but that's okay, because the Scissor Sisters are AWESOME." "There are only two good songs on that album, though." I sighed. Das Roomie opined later that a traditionally accepted form of flirting is ribbing the party of interest regarding his or her preferences in media. But having just met this gentlemen, and having just heard this gentlemen dismiss one of my current favorite bands, I was a little put off. So here is the advice I offer you, dudes. If a lady says she likes a band, and you think they've only done two good songs, then SAY HOW MUCH YOU LIKE THOSE SONGS. I'm just sayin'. | permalink blog • archives • photos • about • contact This work is licensed under a Creative Commons License. All content © 2004.
