I’m pretty sure this is covered in The Rules
When you interrupt major fooling around with, “I have something important to tell you,” there is a limited amount of acceptable ways to follow it up. These include:
1) I love you.
2) I won the lottery and will keep you in school tuition for a dozen Ph.D.s in return for that cute way you scrunch your eyebrows.
3) It was a false positive.
4) My parents decided not to visit.
I suppose we could think up some more. But more importantly, there are phrases that are strictly prohibited. Such as, oh I don’t know, off the top of my head…
I didn’t bring any condoms.
ooooh…(insert various face scrunches here)…no, that one is baaad.
That’s right up there with hearing “oh, shit!” during professional hygiene (haircuts, waxings, etc.)…
Okay, not really. Yours was definitely worse. But I guess it beats feeling like you must talk someone into it, right? ;)
I don’t know…we didn’t have to wait for condoms to grow like you do with hair. Some light cursing, a promise to blog about it, a trip to Publix, and voila.
