We had new air conditioners installed at work. The office smelled like vinegar for two whole days. Someone said it was the silicone sealant. So I asked: If the silicone sealant smells like vinegar, then do silicone implants smell like vinegar also?
One person in the room stated that I should probably not say every little thing that pops into my head out loud. That person doesn’t know anything. Anyway, this elicited some laughter but also prompted a 5 minute discussion. No one really knew. We asked the boys if they ever had a silicone run-in and of course they hadn’t, and I had no idea cuz my breasts are real, so my boss suggested we ask Jeeves. (yes, my boss was part of the discussion) So I did. Jeeves didn’t even know. But he did list all the chemicals that are found in breast implants such as: acetone, lacquer thinner, printing ink and formaldehyde. That’s pretty gross.
Anyway, so my boss attended a dinner that night and the next morning tells me that she was making the rounds and ended up sitting at a table where she only knew half the people. She started talking about me (even called me by name so now there are a few more people in the world who think I’m a wackadoo) and told them about the question of the day. She even went as far as listing some of the chemicals. She stated that one woman did not appear particularly amused by this (she works in my mothers building). I told my boss that I was glad to have provided her with an ice-breaker of a topic but next time she should probably not repeat any of the things that come out of my mouth.
One should only say the things I say if: A. you don’t care what the present company thinks of you, B. you are comfortable enough with saying insane things to the people you are talking to, C. you are talking to a therapist.
So, for those of you who have witnessed one of my many insane rants, statements, or questions, please take it as a compliment. I feel comfortable enough to wave my freak flag in front of you. That should mean something to you. Wait, or I don’t care what you think...uuummm....
