Quote of the Week


The official "I've run out of stuff to post about" post is back with this second installment. This quote is brought to you by a former married co-worker, who had this to say after my always amazing karaoke rendition of Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man":

You drink Guinness and sing songs about sex. How are you not married?

If only it were that easy...

I'd love to hear you sing.

I do the same things, and no one ever asks me why I'm not married. This is one of those incredibly unfair gender differences, isn't it?

I'd be more impressed with an actual stout. When you get around to Storm King by Victory, then we'll talk...but only if I'm single and you're not completely disgusted by the sight of me. Which you will be, so maybe we shouldn't even talk, but you should try the beer.

You know who else drinks Guinness and sings songs about sex? Shane MaGowan. You should look him up.

Liz said...

Its cause your loser friends like me are always hangin' around and cock blockin' ya. Sorry!

Red said...

Dr. Z: I'd love to hear you sing. We could do a duet.

Pistols: Why aren't you married? (There. I asked. Feel better?)

mjenks: I will look for it...and avoid looking at you at all costs. For the record, though, I drink "actual" stout all the time. This particular night, however, Guinness was my best option, you beer snob.

TIR: I looked him up. Apparently, he's the lead singer of The Pouges? He's cool in my book.

Fal: Aw, thanks. I think you're super, too.

Liz: You never cockblock. If anything, I meet more interesting dudes when I'm hanging with you. Few will ever top our Italian porn star, you know.

Liz said...

Very true. He was the best.

words...words...words... said...

I drink Guinness and then refrain from singing. Considering my skills as a crooner, I think my restraint has earned me TWO wives.

Red said...

When Liz says "he was the best", does she mean...? ;P

You should just move to Utah and buy some harem pants.

MJenks said...

Red: I'm sorry, I forgot you were on the west coast. I don't know if Victory distributes out there. You should talk Zibbs into mailing you some.

Garney said...

Either you've told me this quote before or I totally just had deja vu.

Your sports affiliations and avatar are probably what's holding you up on the marriage front.
