WTF? Fridays, Volume V

Friday, June 03, 2005 10 comments
A few random things first, while I prime myself for my weekly frolic in my kiddie pool of vitriol.

Bermando: hey there hawt mama
MusicLvrDee: Hello!
Bermando: Friday is here, lets party!!!!!
MusicLvrDee: WORD!
Bermando: What do you call 2 lesbos in a closet?
MusicLvrDee: Oh jeez....I don't know, what?
Bermando: a liquor cabinet
MusicLvrDee: LOL!
MusicLvrDee: Oh Berman. You kill me.

Additionally, Meghan, that was some quality OTP time last night! Long overdue and FREE! Plus! You get to bill some of it back to The Company! How awesome is that? It was worth the hours of sleep I DIDN'T get. :) Oh, and the dinner I didn't eat. This just means you owe me a baked cheese now. Or chili. See what I did right there? I'm so sneaky...

Ok, now onto our regularly scheduled program...WTF? Fridays, Volume V. (I finally get to use V!) (Remember that show? V? Oh man. HAUNTED by the alien birth scene.) (V was good, but campy. Alien Nation was much better. Quality writing. Is that out on DVD yet?)

This week was surprisingly WTF? free, outside of the nit-picky items on my evaluation. There are a FEW things, though.

We're going through many changes here at the agency. We just won a surprisingly tender cut of business and we're gearing up to take it on. Unfortunately, they're moving the worker bees assigned to this particular bit of business into our "area." And guess who will be their temporary assistant until they find someone permanent? That's right! THE TEMP! WTF??

I TOLD them he sucked! Except, I did say it politely. I believe I said, "This is just clearly not his priority," and "He's easily overwhelmed." Oh, and I may have dropped in, "He's kinda creepy." BUT, they have no one else!? WTF? There's NO ONE ELSE at the staffing agency we use? There is not one other soul in this entire city who can, at the very least, book cars, make copies and order food? Or at least can sit there and NOT tell me about the beneficial properties of cashews to seminal fluid?

And what the fuck was up with that anonymous comment to my fruit haiku? At least have the sac to identify yourself! WTF?

Finally, I can't believe this, but I am inflicting a WTF? on my own self. The other night, at about 11 p.m., on the train ride home, a very small but well-dressed latino gentleman stepped onto the train. He was quite small, about 5'1". Maybe even smaller. But this little dude was a PIMP. I thought, you know, Good For You, Little Dude! Own that shit! He was all, "Yeah, I'm little, but I'm fly!" I wondered at the type of upbringing he had that could have instilled in him such an air of confidence. If confidence were measured in inches, I could change the world. Alas, it's not. All I am is just tall.

The Little Dude sat down at the same stop I did. We were diagonal to each other. He caught me observing him (this happens 967,899 times a day in New York City) and I averted my eyes, but not before noticing that HE HAD SIX FINGERS on one hand. Then he made a movement and I noticed that he had a sixth finger on the OTHER hand as well! THE LITTLE DUDE HAD TWELVE FINGERS! No WONDER he was rocking some attitude! What could YOU do with an extra two fingers?! Yeah. EXACTLY.

But, I forgot to tell you. So, WTF? How does one forget to share something like that with all seven of you!?

Forgive me?

    12 Fingers is FUCKING Awesome! He should get some kind of Twerps World Award for that shit! It's that kind of thing that will get me sailing smoothly into the weekend!

    Rock ON x12!

    You know what? You're RIGHT! He SHOULD get a special TwerpsWorld Award.

    And the Award for Shortest Pimp With The Most Fingers goes to:
    Little Dude on the L Train!

    Put your 10-fingered hands together, folks! Show Little Dude some luuuuurv, TwerpsWorld-style.

    If I had 12 fingers I would embark on a lifelong quest to be the BEST PIANO PLAYER OF ALL TIME. But that's just me.

  • Danielle said...

    I haven't even thought about what I would do if I had twelve fingers.

    Hmmm...I'm going to marinate on this for a while.

    You know, the sixth fingers on both hands were not fully formed. I don't think there were three joints.

    Yat to the little man with 12 fingers. Confidence like that rocks hard.

    PS-Sometimes the NY subway can still make you smile, huh?

  • Sam said...

    "Yat" in the previous comment was meant to read "Yay" - but of course you knew that. I'd better give up the hooch or take typing classes.

  • Danielle said...

    And yes, the subway simultaneously delights/repulses me on a daily basis!!

  • MrRyanO said...

    Hmmmm...I think I'd be a Magician if I had extra fingers...that would be super freaky! I hate magic now, but then again, I only have 10 fingers...

    OR

    I'd be a special lover with extra digits to caress my mate with! Awesome!

    OR

    I'd be a Space Cowboy! I don't know what that means...

    Rock ON!

    I've been thinking about this topic as well, RockDog.

    I took piano lessons and kinda sucked. I'm thinking I still would have been a shitty pianist, even with an extra two fingers.

    Before that, I played (or ATTEMPTED to, anyway) the alto saxophone. Having extra digits would have come in very handy. Alas, it was way too fucking heavy to lug to my lessons and back and forth to school. And reeds splintering in my mouth around my retainer was not a fun experience.

    In high school...I don't even want to tell you what I played in high school. All you need to know is that the extra two digits probably would not have made much of a difference.

    Give me a little bit more time. I'm sure I'll think of something. For now, I'm going to be lame and go to sleep. Deebo's tirrrrrrred.
