She: “I’m going to marry Prince William some day.”<\/p>\n
Me: “Why? You wouldn’t be happy. There’s no way you’d fit in with the family and it’d make you miserable.”<\/p>\n
She: “Just because I’m Catholic, American and disabled?”<\/p>\n
Me: “Yeah. Why don’t you find a nice rock star to latch onto? There are plenty of single, Brit rock stars.”<\/p>\n
BF: “I hear Tony Blair used to front the Clash.”<\/p>\n
Me: “There you go!”<\/p>\n
She: “Tony Blair? He’s kinda old.”<\/p>\n
Me: “What about Milli Vanilli?”<\/p>\n
BF: “Or was that the Boomtown Rats?”<\/p>\n
Me: “Bob Geldof could be a nice fit.”<\/p>\n
She: “…I don’t know, guys.”<\/p>\n
BF: “Ah, c’mon. Things will only get better — Howard Jones!”<\/p>\n
She: “…”<\/p>\n
BF: “What? Howard Jones is not so bad.” <\/p>\n
Me: “But the hair!” <\/p>\n
BF: “That can be shaved. All sorts of things can be shaved.” <\/p>\n
She: “Like what?” <\/p>\n
BF: “Your face, time, the cat’s backside.” <\/p>\n
Me: “I can’t play this game any more. I just went to my dark place.”
