Mommy, I dressed myself!

Oct. 17th, 2003 at 9:43 AM

I wear black because...

All my pink clothes were covered in gasoline and torched.

It's good enough for the Inquisition, it's good enough for me.

It makes me less conspicuous at drive-by shootings.

I wouldn't want to clash with my future.

Colors come and go, but black is always in style--just ask a funeral director.

By the end of the day, I hate all my co-workers. Even in clothing, it's good to prepare for mood swings.

It matches my combat boots.

Burgeondy is too hard on the eyes.

It hides the stains of being trampled under society's heel real good.

99.99% of the endless abyss of space can't be wrong.

Current Mood: amused
Current Music:Paint it black, duh.

"I wouldn't want to clash with my future."

This is the funniest.

"Burgeondy is too hard on the eyes."

And too hard to spell, apparently. ;)

In that case, I should go back and change a word in #3 of the “possibilities” list to read “whomever”. I just didn't want to sound *stuffy* ;)

Too bad you're all the way down in Texas. You're clearly a hoot at parties :)

Re: Awoo?

No, no, I wasn't insulting you at all! You're (as they say in New England) wicked cool. You'd fit right in with some of my more Linguistically-oriented friends.

poppinjaye, whose college ring says "English and Linguistic," since they couldn't fit the final 's.'

An' I wish I could get you and my roommate October, currently in California, down for Halloween :) That would be an intense amount of orange and black in one place :)
