Him: "Why is it that people say 'batshit' for crazy and not 'guano'?  They're the same thing." (Referring  here to Wonkette.com posts.)

Me: "Plosives."

Him: "What? Explosives?"

Me: "No. Words with syllabic bite. You know, like 'slut'.  Hammer syllables and hard stops are more effective when used in certain ways. Plus, if you're inwardly eight, like me, swearing gives you a frisson of glee. But a better question might be why people say 'batshit' and not 'catshit'."

Him:  *pause*  "I guess. Hey, do we have a special knife for cutting up eggplant?"

Me: "Nope."

Him: "Well, can you do it? Because the skin feels like skin and it''s like I'm doing an autopsy over here."

Me: "You're making dinner and you bring up bat crap, but the skin on an eggplant grosses you out?"

Him: "I know, right?"

He's really random. Talking to him is like finding Trivial Pursuit cards on the floor.

"What's the speed of sound?"

"What's confectioner's sugar? Don't all confectionery desserts contain sugar?"

"I want to go on a Nile cruise, except... what if pirates hijack the boat?"

Yeah! He does this to everyone.

He says he doesn't remember asking you that question. I'm not surprised. And he's claiming I'm the weird one. (When he said batshit he was not referring to anyone in particular, btw, but an online discussion elsewhere.)

It's like being married to Rain Man. Time for Wapner!

YES

That reminds me... are you going to that Valentine's event in Joisey?

I have never been to one of those convention-style partythings.

NO

Uhh... DragonCon? I wouldn't go unless certain people plan to be there. (Not you, but that would be a plus.)

And I will not wait in line for two hours to touch Marsters' hand, so you're on your own with that worshipfulness.

(Though I would wait in line for a dirty shag up against the wall, I admit.)

...adding that I would have to be first in line because I don't want your sloppy seconds. Ew.

...when it's not baffling, it is. ;)

I should make him into an OC. He'd be an awesome character. Hee!

From the peanut gallery: "I can't be an OC. I'm an OG. Gangsta!"

And he actually just got up to throw gang signs at himself in the mantel mirror.

And now it's the Mary Katherine Gallagher impression. "Supastar!" I'm rollin'.

It seems to me that the baffling part is what makes it so entertaining. :D You guys need a reality TV show or something.

There would have to be a pretty long writers' strike to get the green light for this reality show. ;)

ROFL - men are strange creatures...

batshit - crazy people have "bats in the belfry" are "batty" or "bats"? My guesses where batshit crazy may have come from.

I think you're right.

Plus, flying things with fur... and creepy teef? And sleeping upside down and the echolocation thing?

That's a cave full of crazy, right there.

"men are strange creatures"

We find the fairer sex a little mysterious at times, too;)

I could probably make you one if you snag some screencaps.

I'm not very good at lettering, though.
