So I was reading my Friends List, and read in
dealio's recent post:
I have to make an emergency disk for one of our stations -- an emergency disk is an actual cd of songs and imaging that can be played if the main audio program goes kerflewie -- and a song that came out in high school, the only song that I tried to make an "our song" to cement a relationship came up on the play list. I haven't heard it in ages, my god this is a crap song. No, I'm not going to name the song, I'm *really* not.
So of course I immediately called him and asked him what the song was. He refused to tell me until I offered him a bribe, and I swore I'd never tell the name of the song. (Which I won't. I want to, but I won't.)
He said, really fast and kind of mumbled, "It was [Really Cheesy 80s song That Laura Actually Still Kind of Likes] by [But She Digs Cheesy Songs, So That Doesn't Say Much]."
"Oh my god, that was me! You did that on a mix tape for me in college!"**
"Uh ... no, I did that in high school, and I guess I did it for you in college."***
I was, at this point, laughing like a loon. "I was a repeat! You cad!"****
(Now I'm wondering what of his other college moves were originally used in high school.)
**he was so cool, all, "Just listen to the lyrics."
***he really probably doesn't remember. I have the mix tape around somewhere, so I can prove it to him.
****Okay, I don't think I said "cad." I was laughing a lot, so I'm not sure I remember exactly what I said after the repeat thing. But close enough.
Oh, and let me take this opportunity to inform the world that on the same mix tape as The Unnamed Song of Shame, Scott included a Sinead O'Connor song and wrote on the liner notes that I was not allowed to tell anyone he had a Sinead O'Connor tape. BUT HE DID.
