That's Bizarre
Over the weekend I watched some Arrested Development (again. but not like "Again?...(sigh)... Jesus Christ! Why don't I do something else?!?"...more like "Yay!") and now I can't get the phrase "pan-sexual bizarre" out of my head, so when the lady at Tim Horton's asks me if I ordered a large or an extra-large Cafe Mocha (Extra large...duh.), all I think is "pan-sexual bizarre" and when my boss asks if I had a nice weekend I hear "pan-sexual bizarre" (which it totally wasn't, because I looked up the Wiki definition of the prefix "Pan-" and it means "all" or "of all members" which made me giggle a little because I am 12.) and when the Ex- calls up and asks if I know when the Winter concert for Honors Chorus is, I hear "Pan-Sexual Bizarre" because it's just stuck in there.
And I always hear it said in Ron Howard's voice, which I don't think means anything because that was the voice I heard it in during the show, but I'm not shut to the idea that I might potentially be haunted by the ghost of some repressed,traumatic, pan-sexual memory from my childhood or maybe that's just the usual way people hear the words "pan-sexual bizarre" and I'm totally "normal".
So of course, I googled the words "pan-sexual" to see if the memory I'm repressing might be something awesome like being molested by a hot babysitter or something and the first thing it came up with was an article from Gawker about a guy who proclaimed himself to be pan-sexual. Wow. I had no idea you could do that. And that made me wonder if maybe there is like a pan-sexual dating service like Match.com, but then it occurred to me that pan-sexuals don't really need a dating service because being pan-sexuals they could just find a provocative-looking tree or something. And then I realized I was thinking about it too much and then my boss called and asked me for the results of the 10K benchmark thermal flow measurements and when I told him he said "That's bizarre."

and you made me think of that song "how bizzare"...I hated that song.
Not familiar with it. Sounds like I should be happy about that though.
Sounds like an orgy to me.
I have the same problem with "That's what she said".
Thank you for making me laugh! I mean, you almost always make me laugh but today I really needed it.
I loved Arrested Development. As a show. Not as a character trait. Just wanted to clarify. I also disliked that "how bizarre, how bizarre" song. One of those talking songs that makes you think, why does he get to be on the radio? He's not even singing.
I sometimes like getting these letters. Depends if its mightier-than-thou-braggart letter or just regular update.
I posted a discussion to write a Faux Family Letter on Blog Catalog. If you have any ideas you haven't used up, feel free to add on. I'd love it!
