the rules of ex dating

This morning Georg and I reached an important consensus: Someone dorky who used to date our friend is not allowed to like a cool album that we like. We want to be able to make fun of everything about them. Having to pause and say, "well, that is a good album" just won't do.

Maybe she gave him the album, which he obviously would have never bought in the first place, and he only likes it because it reminds him of his brush with greatness, her.

That above was me, duh.

A more baroque version of nellorat's suggestion: "He liked it for the wrong reasons."

Ha! Jason, when I read your comment I assumed it was written by Christa. You did get the genders right, I'm assuming you know who I'm talking about.

ok, i don't mind outing myself :) the dorky person use to date me. dorky is a very kind word. these days i tend to go with "horrifying", but then i'm the one who dated him.

i'm not going to pull up his ad again so i can see all the music he referenced, but if he really was referencing Pram, and that's the one you're referring to, then i did NOT give it to him, he heard it in my car, never showed more than a passing interest in it while we were dating, and i think he's just using it to appear more hip than he actually is.

we're talking about someone with the worst musical taste i have ever encountered. we're talking spice girls, mike cross, and obscure un-funny comedy records from the 40's.

geah.
