Are you a boob man or a butt man?

Me (to the husband): If you had to choose one thing for the rest of your life, would it be boobs or butts?

The husband:  Um, butts I guess.

The husband: (Pause for thought) But if I could, I'd definitely choose one of each.

(He then makes a gesture that looks something like this, complete with hands making a little "honk-honk" motion.)

The husband: (Contemplating his flash of brilliance.) That totally works. I only have two hands anyway.

Me:  But then I'd be all deformed! (Picturing something like this)




The husband: Oh sure.  And you wouldn't be all deformed if your butt or your boobs were somehow removed?

Me: Well, at least I'd be symmetrically deformed.

The husband: This can't end well; let's just leave your butt and your boobs where they are.  They're perfect.

Me: That's a fair point well made.

(And he is a very wise man.)

The presentation of this missive from Keenie Beanie-land shamelessly imitates certain clever posts by the brilliant Lemon Gloria.  If you aren't reading her blog yet, you totally should.

  2. Too funny! My boyfriend always quotes Seinfeld when asked a similar question: "Why would I be a leg man? I HAVE legs."

  3. Damn your stick figures are tidy! Mine all look like they have rickets in their legs when I draw them.

  4. Krysta and Go-Betty: Although my stick figures don't have rickets, sadly, my hair generally looks exactly like that in real life. :-(

    Limr - Seinfeld does make a great point.

  6. Love the stick figs! My hubs claims to be a butt man. And of the two I am more endowed in the back end...I sure have enough "back" to be his eye candy!

    Great laugh!

  7. Botut - the irony of D being a butt man is I'm seriously lacking in the junk-in-the-trunk department. :-)
