Because joz is out sick, I am left to my own devices for comradery (msp?) and entertainment. This is what I have been up to. And in my defense I think I am right on this one. What do you think? (“hurl more” to hear my intelligent i.m. conversation with a friend.)

friend: why won’t best buy’s website let me order this freaking dvd!!!!! I’m annoyed.
everything is there and then I go to continue to the part where you enter the credit card info and it just gives me a blank screen
professoreric: hmmm, which dvd?
friend: Chicago. DVD and Soundtrack for $20. so I’m trying to buy both.
professoreric: rumor has it that the movie is better then the city.
friend: huh?
professoreric: chicago
friend: you: “rumor has it that the movie is better then the city.” ????
professoreric: right
friend: that makes no sense!!
professoreric: why, chicago the movie is better then chicago the city
friend: OHHHH. I got you…I thought you meant like the play or something, ‘cause you can’t really compare a city to a movie. that’s ridiculous!!
professoreric: no its not
professoreric: china is a better country then the dish.
professoreric: boston is as good a creme as it is a city
professoreric: and new york is a more exciting city then it is a pizza
professoreric: got it?
friend: you’re an idiot
professoreric: what!
professoreric: but you agree with all of those statements right
professoreric: i mean i would prefer a nice warm afghan currently, to a trip there
friend: but you can’t compare them!!!!
professoreric: why?
friend: You can’t!!
professoreric: why?
professoreric: apples and oranges are both fruit
professoreric: right?
friend: right
professoreric: then we are back in agreement
friend: but you still can’t compare them
professoreric: i think you can
friend: whatever
professoreric: typical way to loose an argument, saying “whatever” and then ending the conversation…
professoreric: shouldn’t you be doing work?
friend: I should be but instead I am on hold with best buy cause the website still keeps f*@$ing up when I am trying to order
professoreric: sorry…
professoreric: dvd’s are better then bvd’s
friend: that’s true… and dvd’s are now cheaper than vhs… which I think is great
professoreric: amen.

Disclaimer: This entry is not meant to offend anyone whose preferences are different then those expressed her. You might prefer china as a dish then as a country. That is fine. Some of might best friends are into ceramics. We are all entitled to our own preferences. (actually there are a few people I can think of that I would like to evoke that privilege from…)
