Romance

It could work out. I doubt it will look too powerful but it will of course, look stronger than more simple suit combinations.

Theyre agent venom, Im anti-venom

Well, I'm terrible at visualizing combinations without actually seeing them, but I saw my beau in a black suit, white shirt, and black-and-red paisley tie not too long ago, and it struck me as an aggressive look. Not sure if a pinstripe suit would mitigate or exacerbate that.

I'll have to put them together and see them tonight. Need to hurry up and decide, because my outfit will be locked in tonight when I bring it over to his house.

@Quag: One of my favourite SatW strips, for sure.

@Tape: I knew you'd come up with something better Rompeprop is hard to top for sure, but I raise you... DISCO POLKA.

@Bydo: That's quite clever, actually.

Mache dich, mein Herze, rein...

Well, the song actually is supposed to seem dispassionate and non-genuine—it was written as a response to the record company wanting them to record a love song as a single, so the "et cetera" and other similar lyrics was largely their way of making fun of the idea. Musically, well, it's a song from the mid-60s, so it is what it is with how it sounds.

EDIT: Better explanation from Wikipedia:
"The band recorded "Elenore" as a parody of the type of happy-go-lucky pop songs they themselves had been performing, but with deliberately clichéd and slapdash lyrics such as: "Your looks intoxicate me / Even though your folks hate me / There's no one like you, Elenore, really"; and "Gee, I think you're swell / And you really do me well / You're my pride and joy, et cetera..."[3] Howard Kaylan later said:

---

Elenore was a parody of "Happy Together." It was never intended to be a straight-forward song. It was meant as an anti-love letter to White Whale [Records], who were constantly on our backs to bring them another "Happy Together." So I gave them a very skewed version. Not only with the chords changed, but with all these bizarre words. It was my feeling that they would listen to how strange and stupid the song was and leave us alone. But they didn't get the joke. They thought it sounded good. Truthfully, though, the production on "Elenore" WAS so damn good. Lyrically or not, the sound of the thing was so positive that it worked. It certainly surprised me.[4]"

Surely you know the Turtles' other big songs? "Happy Together"? "She'd Rather Be with Me"? Well, "Happy Together" at least.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

Eh, i'm not going to go through with my mad plan. Too left-field given that Tuesday was the first time we'd spoken in weeks. Doesn't mean i'm not going to keep trying with her, but it has to be something softer. Not like i'm going to start a relationship or anything (no time), i should just try to make this fun, for both of us, play this smoother.

I got self- confidence falling outta my butt. What has happened the last few days

That sounds unhealthy.

Maybe you should see a doctor about that.

what do you mean I didn't win, I ate more wet t-shirts than anyone else

Confidence prolapse ain't pretty.

Ask your doctor if self-confidence is right for you.

My GF's birthday is today, but i can't chat with her until i get back home, which is at like 7pm.

We haven't been able to talk much, she's always busy. At least i know i care.

-hugs-

Just in time for our third month together, my NWP got her wisdom teef removed, so we can finally meet up and enjoy ourselves for a properly prolonged period. Good times incoming .

Fear the cinnamon sugar swirl. By the Gods, fear it, Laurence.

She just broke up with me and I don't know what to do. I just want to curl up in a ball and die.

-hug- Be calm, Kesa.

What happened?

I'm sorry to hear that, man.

Standing on the edge of the crater...

currently, i'm feeling a strong romantic connection to somebody i've been friends with for a couple years. thankfully, it's mutual, as they've had a crush on me for about as long as mine on them. the suck comes in when i think about the fact that they live in ohio, while i'm here in new jersey.

She told me she sees me as a brother and not as a boyfriend. But I don't see her like that. I love her. And I don't know what to do now. I'm so scared, I don't understand.

Did you let her know you feel that way?

It doesn't matter how I feel. That's not gonna change how she feels about me. I've lost the best thing I've ever had, and I'll never get it back, and I want to disappear.
