Beauty is Imperfection

What weird, inchoate things are we suddenly saying to our spouses as we sit on the couch?

–*I’m all lumpy today.

–*Do you ever think you’d make an awful dog sitter?

–*The fourth season of most shows usually sucks, have you ever noticed that?

–*Do you ever wish you still had your foreskin?

–*Samantha at work let out the biggest fart today.

–*Why do some strangers hug you?

–*I pretty much agree with Wittgenstein that language is just a game.

–*I can’t eat gelatin. It’s not food and it’s not water. It’s like, in between.

–*Of all your pets, which one was your favorite? Don’t tell me you liked them all equally, that’s bullshit.

–*1998 was a very red year.

–*I hate when people say they hate the Beatles. They’re just trying to call attention to themselves and seem all rebellious.

–*Why am I, like, hating everybody today?

–*Did you say something? Oh, I guess I’m just all over the place.
