ICQ conversation snippet
Jan. 30th, 2003 11:40 amOne which makes me wonder, yet again, if there weren't some celestial mix-up when it came time for myself and my friend Kin-Hon to be born. The show he's referring to is the Shaolin Wheel of Life performance from Monday:
Honville: hi
Honville: you still up?
Crowmark: Yes, unlike some people, I don't leave my computer on 24 hours a day.
Honville: ha ha! :) !!!!!!!!!!!!*
Honville: thank you for the show, btw
Honville: although I am still trying to figure out the storyline
Crowmark: Dude, there *wasn't* a storyline. I didn't want to see a storyline. I wanted to see guys kicking ass, and that's what we got.
Crowmark: Although if you still want to try to find one I can loan you the DVD.
I'm reasonably sure that for the most part, it's supposed to be the female participant in the conversation who asks where the (movie/show)'s plot was, and the male one who says 'plot? I'm just watching this for the explosions' or the equivalent. Then again, the last time I ordered a DVD by mail, it turned out Kin-Hon had as well. Both of us were equally excited about our shiny new entertainment, but he was the one who'd ordered Sex and the City season 2, and I was the one who'd ordered New Legend of Shaolin. Like I said, I'm starting to wonder if there weren't some form of mix-up.
* English is perhaps Kin-Hon's third language, after Malay and Fukienese dialect. Despite this, he finds all of my humor, even the kind that's just a dry little comment I didn't stop to think about, worth laughing over. Usually laughing a lot. Even online.
