My girlfriend is so pretty that I can’t get over it. Every week I celebrate the alignment of her features by parading a giant photograph of her lovely face around the town center. I’ve written the words “pretty face” on the picture’s border, and drawn an arrow to direct people’s attention toward it. It’s not bragging, because it’s her that’s the pretty one, not me. I’m going to parade every week for as long as she lets me be her boyfriend, and probably even longer. Nothing’s going to put me off, not even the shouts of “Had her” or “Been there.
-Dan Rhodes, Anthropology (2005). (via chamberlain)
I love this book! The whole collection is super fun, and for my attention span, it’s really easy to pick up whenever. There’s one called “Chemicals” that I like:
“Unable to accept that Celestia was no more than a haphazard cluster of chemicals brought together by chance in a universe out of control, I started to believe. To give thanks for her pretty face and endearing ways, I’ve started getting up early and taking her from door to door, with a sign around her neck that asks: AM I JUST CHEMICALS? ‘Look at her,’ I say to the bleary-eyed householders, ‘and draw your own conclusion.’
Sometimes they chase us away, but usually they just mumble, ‘She looks like chemicals to me,’ and shut the door loudly in our faces.”
