.059 - video musings

You know, a year ago I thought it was pretty cool that I have my own action figure. But now I have a lot of them, of people that I know pretty well and I think it's actually... really creepy.

This is someone's toy and you know they never stop at the action figures. What if there's a board game or footie pajamas or something? Tiny little backpacks with my face on it.

And what if we all have weird crap like this out in the universe somewhere? Some kid could be playing the Prefect game where you try and sell everything you own. Or you can hit a little inflatable head with a frying pan. Or you could be like some people here and rip shit up that doesn't belong to you. [Does he mean Trip or Tim? WHO KNOWS YOU BOTH RUIN HIS THINGS :|]

Shit, what if there's costumes too?

I saw someone dressed up like Uhura one night in Salem.

... I'm honestly torn because those dresses are hot but it's still creepy.

I think all of that sounds wonderful even though I don't know what most of it is.

Try going to a restaurant and being served by a waitress dressed like your secret alter-ego.

She didn't have the legs for it.

That reminds me, what exactly happened to sexual politics between my time and yours? Decades spent campaigning against the treatment of women as objects aaaand then we wind up in a post-scarcity utopia where the uniform for female employees of a diplomatic and peackeeping organization involves a minidress and knee boots?

[Something awesome happened duh.]

There's a pants version. It's not my fault she doesn't wear it.

Really? It'd be wonderful if your face was on a lunchbox?

That is not real.

If it were a picture of my face. Because if it were my actual face...I don't believe I'd like to think about that anymore.

I'm more concerned that the dress version is even available. Or did you pass on the hotpants version of your uniform?

There is a restaurant chain that cashes in on the superhero thing. They make the waitstaff dress as heroes and have memorabilia on the walls and don't serve alcohol because they're "family friendly." [Think Planet Hollywood but with superheroes.] I wish it weren't real.

[PAUSE, PAUSE, PAUSE]

And welcome back.

[Because yes. You've been back a while, but she was in a coma when you showed up and... she's been ignoring/avoiding you since she woke up. Because she's mature like that. :|]
