I have a bit of a strangely, warped sense of humor. I use it often. I love the story of the Emperor's New Clothes if that tells you anything and find the most humorous part when he realized he is standing in his underwear. I loved dressing my cat up in doll clothes and pushing him around in a stroller (sorry Cashew, if cat's could be Saints you would have been one, I love you). I am really not normal. I won't apologize for it, though. I enjoy it.
My son is a musician. Good musicians listen to various genres to add to and improve their musical style of playing. My son has been listening to and playing some grunge. I am not a fan of grunge. I used to be, but it's too "angry emo" for me. However, today he wanted me to critique a song that he and a friend wrote. Well, being the good Mom, I did. And being the one with the warped sense of humor, I critiqued it in my own way resulting in my interpretation of grunge:
Grunge Music = You’re a jerk. You know you’re a jerk. I’m going to stay calm about it though. Maybe. Well, you did kind of piss me off. I may raise my voice a little. Ok, I’m raising it a little more. I’m emo. You’re not like me you emotionless jerk. That makes me mad. I’m raising my voice more. Louder. A little louder. A lot louder. My guitar string broke. Ok, that calmed me down. I am ok. Because I yelled. I am calm again. I need prozac. And anger management. But not as bad as you. Because you’re a jerk. Ok, now I am mad again. I am raising my voice again. And louder. And this feels great, louder. And another string breaks. Dang it. I’m singing lower again. I’m tired of singing lower and then louder. I think I will fade out. Like your love for me. You jerk.
I hope my son practices polka next. I just love a good challenge.
Oh Michelle - I was cracking up as I read your interpretation. SOOOOO funny.
