A conversation with my sister...

[arib]

S- sister, sixteen, seriously religious
M- me!

S: Ari, the boys in my class are such dorks.

M: Why's that?

S: Well a bunch of them are going to see Star Wars at midnight.

M: That's kinda cool. What's so dorky about that.

S: Well, some of them are dressing as stormtroopers and carrying lightsabers and stuff.

M: Yeah, that is dorky. Everyone knows that stormtroopers don't have lightsabers.

S: No, no. Some of them are dressing as stormtroopers, other ones have lightsabers at all.

M: Oh. Much better. That's not dorky at all, that's just enthusiastic.

S: ...dork.

Originally, N refused to go for the first two weeks, to avoid the geek rush, but said he didn't mind if I went without him. So I went ahead and made plans, and then he succumbed and said he'd come.

N: But I get to make fun of people.
Me: Only when we're alone.
N: Does "in the theatre" count as alone?
Me: No, "on the subway by ourselves or home in our apartment or my discretion" counts as alone.
N: Oh. Darn.

We're going Thursday night. I am v. excited.

Yeah, when one can barely move due to severe viral infection, insulting strangers isn't really the best idea. :-)

Have a great time tonight.

Everyone knows that stormtroopers don't have lightsabers.

I'm going tonight with my little sister. Not in costume, unfortunately, but we're going. :)

Was she seriously expecting any sympathy whatsoever from you on this subject?

[arib.livejournal.com]

None whatsoever. :-)

Geeks not dorks.
Big difference.
