I received a piece of junk mail titled:
"Longer, harder, fiercer bangs"
and I sat there staring at it, trying to figure out who sends junk mail about hair. And do people still use the word "fierce" to describe something that's aesthetically pleasing? And who wants HARD hair? Are bangs even in style right now? oh. wait. OH.
Bangs.
BANGS.
ok. ew. more pervy junk mail.
But at least that makes more sense...
I REALLY need to get some sleep.
Goodbye Paula. You will be missed.

Hahahaha! I thought the same thing when I read it.
ReplyDeleteIt's the way the mind works according to gender I guess. I immediately thought what I was supposed to think when I read it and thought, "That's odd. She's going to write about porn now? Just doesn't seem like that kind of blog."
ReplyDeleteThen I read on and thought, "Stupid me, it's about hair styles."
Then I read further and realized I was right in the first place about it's meaning but wrong in that you were going to now right about it.
This post pulled me in too many different directions. Stop confusing me.
That should be "write" about it not "right" about it. I guess I need some sleep too.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha. Thank you Jonathan! That gave me a good giggle. I will try not to cause so much emotional turmoil in future.
ReplyDeleteAnd i think that's a brilliant and dame-appropriate observation - that the text reads differently to a woman than it does to a man.
I seriously sat there trying to wrap my head around the concept of a long, stiff fringe in one's hair.
"I REALLY need to get some sleep."
ReplyDeleteAnd perhaps a decent spam filter as well... :-)
So many other comments are jumping around in my mind, but I think I'll leave them there, lest you completely lose all respect for me.
