Conversation with the Boy on the subway yesterday:
Boy: I can't believe you paid full price to get on here. Sucker.
Self-Righteous Self: Um, it's the law.
Boy: No it isn't.
S-RS: Yes it is. It's not just a freaking suggestion. Anyway, I feel sorry for the TTC... it's very poor and needs our help.
Boy: Anyway, who are they going to tell if I don't?
S-RS: The police. And they'll yell at you.
Boy: I'll yell back.
S-RS: No you won't.
Boy: Who will they tell if I do?
S-RS: ... The police. Again.
Boy: Stony silence.
S-RS: Riiiiiight. Anyway... so... Okay, sorry for being bossy?
Boy: You were being bossy.
S-RS: And you were being...?
Boy: Thank you for saying sorry for being bossy.
S-RS: Er. Right. You're welcome. So... you wanna make out?
Boy: No.
And that's when I took this picture.

PS: Congratulations to the awesome and hilarious Catwoman, who I lost my blogging virginity to and is the standard against which I compare everything online (and who made my LIFE by posting here the other day). She just found out she's living my recurring fantasy and is having her second baby boy. If he looks and acts anything like her first one, she's going to be fighting off the girls and the readers with large sticks for many years. And I know for one I can't wait to see it.
