  • bacon vs oysters

    I had an interesting little email conversation with a friend yesterday.  It should really help men understand the inner workings of a woman's brain.  Or not...but still worth a giggle. 

    SD: My coworkers said I should just post that calendar poster at my new place, either on the other side of or where the Flatiron is…

    Me: How about framed on your bedside table?

    SD: How about no. I actually have a framed pic of Ryan Phillippe…

    Me: ROTFLMAO!!! Really? Mine was of Darren Hayes from Savage Garden…until he came out as gay. He’s still in the frame, but the frame isn’t on my bedside table anymore.

    SD: Wait, it’s not on my bedside table. It just have it. Friend got it for me as x’mas present. Actually, I’m not really sure where it is…

    Me: Lol!! Lies.

    SD: No it’s true. I don’t really have a bedside table. I got a bedside ledge, but only got enough space for a lamp and the alarm clock.

    Also…Darren Hayes?? Really? Tho still not as surprising as Zack Morris. I actually preferred the guitarist (Daniel Jones).

    Me : It’s ok…I’m very over Darren. I love a good voice. That’s probably my third. Piano – Violin – Voice. But even then… a great singer is very distant behind violinist. I don’t think I have a third. That said…I do love Michael [Bublé]. Get over the Zack. *I’m* over the Zack.

    SD: Lol. If you’re adding voice, it might be voice, piano, guitar then violin for me.

    Me: I dunno…guitar is just… I mean… I like it…but I don’t fall madly in love with it...not even if it’s Ben Harper-esque. I would always choose Daniel Powter and his piano prowess over him.

    Serious? Voice is number one for you? Really? British accent might be…but singing voice is still third in my book.

    SD: I’m very specific with voice though. I get chills, literally, with the ones I like. It’s a tough choice between guitar and violin, because I react to them differently. One is more warm fuzzy feeling, and the other’s more awe. It’s like bacon vs oysters.

    Me: Bacon & oysters?!!? LOL!! I’m guessing the violin is the oysters?

    SD: Hey, if it gets the point across, it’s a good analogy. That actually makes “Bacon” a very suitable name for dogs – warm and fuzzy.

    Yes, violin is oysters. It’s higher end stuff. Unless the bacon in question is pancetta, and the oyster is malpaque…but that’s just complicating things.
