If I tell you I'm watching Star Wars...

...don't freaking ask me which episode.  Star Wars is Star Wars.  Empire Strikes Back is Empire Strikes Back.  Return of the Jedi is Return of the Jedi.

I'm watching the one called Star Wars.  It's not difficult.

It's time to get real.

How can you tell if you're being hit on?

Here's a situation where I thought I was being hit on.  Please share your stories.

A girl I was in high school with had 50 cents of mine for some reason.  We were at a cast party for a school play.  Maybe I loaned the money to her, I can't remember.  Anyway, she took the two quarters and slid them into her bra.  Then she said, "Come and get it."  I think she was hitting on me.  Then she said "Want to take a walk?"  I think that was a sign.

Do you think she was hitting on me?  It's a little hard to be flattered because when I didn't respond, she went off and started flirting with a 13-year-old.

Homey say what?

My next fun music game... Songs that don't mean at all what you thought they did when you first heard them.

Item the First: Unbelievable, EMF

I was an idiot, and took the title at face value, and never actually listened to the words. I think I actually told a girl that she was unbelievable, like the song, once. Oops. Let's look at that more closely:

You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you

The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable

You burden me with your problems
By telling me more than mine
I'm always so concerned
With the way you say
You've always go to stop
To think of us being one
Is more than I ever know
But this time, I realize
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you

Seemingly lastless, don't mean
You can ask us
Pushing down the relative
Bringing out your higher self
Think of the fine times
Pushing down the better few
Instead of bringing out the clues
To what the world and everything anger to
Brace yourself with the grace of ease
I know this world ain't what it seems.

What the fuck was that
It's unbelievable
----------------------

Oops. So, this song is about how you're a crazy bitch, and I can't believe anything you say. But... it's so upbeat, and "happy", and stuff! I swear, I had no idea.

Next?

People Keep Telling Me to Read Sanderson's Continuation of The Wheel of Time

I say to you, no.

I'm done, I don't care how good he is at wrapping up the story.  The story lost me.  It's over.
