Roasting Marshmallows in the Fires of a Pop Culture Apocalypse

One-liner of the weekend

So we're at Trudy's in Austin Saturday night. I'm enjoying this amazing dish there "Stuffed Alvacado". It sounds healthy (read not tasty) but it is actually this huge alvacado patty stuffed with chicken, cheese, and chipotle jalepenos then breaded and fried (read slap yo mama tasty). It's fantastic but beside the point.

I notice that Janx and his animator buddy are focused on something behind me. Janx: "Dude, turn around and look at the bar."

I turn and see what have to be almost a dozen backs that belong to Indian (like India Indian) girls all the same age, build, clubbin' outfits, hair length/style, exotically beautiful, etc. standing at the bar.

Janx: "That's amazing! It's like they cloned the same girl over and over!"

I smootly take my napkin out of my lap and act like I have to get up to leave.

PostHaste: "Now, if you'll excuse me...I have to go clone myself."

I don't care who you are, that's funny. I don't normally like to toot my own ego but then again why else would I have a blog. I try to strike a balance between self-deprecating humor, randomness, and me just saying how great I am. I'll try to keep the ego-tooting to a minimum. Though apparently today I ate an ego burrito for lunch.

The best thing about me making that joke is that it works better in my current single state than if I had a gf. It's also funnier if you are privy to the knowledge of how unsmooth I am and how I have no game when it comes to the ladies although this is more to do with being out of the game for so long than me being a spaz. Although my recent leanings towards comic books and video games rather than say regular excercise and exposure to sunlight probably don't help. Needless to say though the three of us guys (who were the only ones at the table to hear the comment) thought it was pretty funny. I hope you did as well. Hopefully it's not one of those "had to be there" things. I tend to be a lot funnier in real life than when I'm handed down through oral tradition.
