I'll Wear It Proudly

Mrs. Wishy Washy gave me (and several others) an F for failing to complete this Sunday's writing assignment, which is fine with me, but I'd like to offer an explanation for missing this one. It's not that I didn't have time, heck, I've been guest hosting Evil Genius' blog plus posting on mine all week. I consciously avoided the assignment. Let me give you some background. Here is the prompt:

239: what are you alergic to-- not physically, but mentally or emotionally? Explain.
This is the dumbest question I've ever been asked. No matter how I answer this, I'm going to sound like a prat. So, I'm not going to answer it. Doc was able to answer it and answer it well. But I'm too cynical to give this a proper response without sounding like a complete holier than thou asshole. What am I going to say? I'm allergic to meanness? I'm allergic to apathy? I'm allergic to abuse? Aren't we all? This is a pointless exercise.
So, dig in your laundry sack and find me something else to right, you old bag, while I head behind the school to smoke cigarettes and spraypaint poorly spelled graffiti on the back wall. Maybe something like, "Eat me, Wishee-Washee!"

  1. Hey, I really had to scratch to come up with this weeks assignment, and to make it even worse, the old battleaxe wants them turned in seconds after she posts. The ol' bitty could use a gentler touch that is for sure.

  3. Flannery, while I must take points off for "holier-than-thou" missing it's dashes and the phonetic spelling of "Wishy-Washy", I am pleased to see that you have made an attempt to answer the question, albeit in a roundabout sort of way. I hereby raise you to a D+ and give you a little gold star for use of the rhetorical question.

  4. Oh, and Mr. Dad, I didn't see YOUR composition on my desk anytime this week, come to think of it...

  5. Goodgodman, she's looking for Alergies, not Allergies. She wants to know what beer you don't like. This is the Culture Of Beer blog, is it not? You have a suitable response, and it ends it 'Lite', so Let's Go! Answer! Get happy!

  6. I'm still upset about the dreams I've been having about Mrs. Wishy-Washy. Please excuse me from class. I have none.
