Went to lunch with my coworker and friend B today. We went to In-N-Out. I drove and therefore I control the radio and I sing along as I please to all the songs.
We were getting on the freeway as "No Scrubs" by TLC came on. I had to sing along, afterall I knew the song. So I'm singing my heart out, then the chorus part comes on, the "no I don't want no scrub, a scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me, hanging around the passenger side of his best friends ride, trying to holler at me..." and so on. So I am not paying much attention, just singing along to the radio. I should have probably said "a scrub is a girl..."
B then says "wooooooow Mike, woooooow I didn't know that about you... I didn't know you swing that way." I said well, there's a lot you don't know. She said apparently. I said she should know by now I love to sing to the radio and I'm bound to sing to anything on the radio. I said I hope that she knows I was kidding. She said, yeah, sure. I said that it is a good thing that I don't want a guy hanging around his best friends ride and whatnot. I said that that a girl can be a scrub... they constantly want, want, want, and just sit around on their "broke butt" as they say in the song. I told her I wanted to amuse her, which is why I didn't change the guy part.... most guys don't have the balls to not change the lyrics, but I sing the song exactly because I have balls.
The conversation was dropped... think I showed her up pretty well.
Then I had another idea... when the song Fergalicious was popular one of the kids we tutor who was a guy always went around singing "Fergalicious definition make them boys go loco..." and she basically said I had a point there, although he did it better than I did.
I'm getting good at playing this stuff off... heh. It was all in fun though, I know B knows that, but I do need to stop I think being a bit obvious and go back to being more closeted.

methinks, thou dost protest too much.... ha ha.
I have a niche for making pointless arguments or arguments where sexuality is/may be in question.. heh...
one of my favorite parts of accepting my sexuality was to be able to sing any song by any female and not feel ashamed :) ... including "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!"
and now everyone knows my power anthem ... *cringes*
