Philosophy
Brothers, Sisters, and Transgendered Comedists Everywhere,
This Valentine's weekend, I recall that a certain Playground regular has an alternate romantic use of the word "logic," and so inspired let's come up with the geekiest ways to describe aspects of romantic encounters.
Here are my entries:
"Making love to him was like reading Hegel. He went on and on, but I never understood quite what he thought he was doing."
"She was like an exponential function with an asymptote."
"It reminded me of going out with a Latin teacher. Things were fine when we were just dative. But once we started conjugating the genitives, she got possessive."
"Sure we bonded quickly, but he refused to follow the Pauli exclusive principle."
Your turn.
Happy Valentine's Day.
Live, love, love, love, love, nap, love, love, and laugh,
Irreverend Steve
