However, I'm taking it as a compliment...

[wednes]

I have these neighbors that we laughingly refer to as our "naked neighbors" because most of the regular guest to our apartment have seen these chicks naked. They just aren't into closing thier blinds.

They are rude and loud and have only come by our place to complain, even though I invited them to one of my gatherings when they first moved in. I'm all about being neighborly.

Anyway, I was going out for a walk today (which must have looked silly since The Dog is out of town for the weekend) and one of the naked neighbors was heard to remark:

"New haircut, huh?"

"Yes," I say, amazed that they are even talking to me.

As she turns away I hear her say to her friend, clear as day: "Dykey".

I must confess, I had no idea how to respond to that. I felt strongly that any further conversation would surely end in a fistfight. I mean, my hair is pretty short, but it was obvious that this idiot thought "Dykey" was some kind of huge insult.

I love the icon. There is something fun yet morbid about it. :)

*Scowls* I wanna beat her.. !! How friggin rude. Especially if they're running around naked together?!?!? Doesn't that make them "dykey"?

[wednes.livejournal.com]

You'd think so, but no.

I mean...even if you think things like that, why would you ever SAY it?

[locakitty.livejournal.com]

Niiiiice.
It's good to know that they don't consider their behavior "dykey." I mean, the only chicks I knew that ran around naked together were lesbians who were in a relationship together. And I've been around some pretty open people who had no qualms about getting naked :)

I'm sure your new haircut is tres tres fabulous however and will be glad to come up there and stomp on them with my boots. Up to you. :)

I don't really care that much...

them living a long life alone with thier stupidity will surely be punishment enough.

[anarchys-savior.livejournal.com]

All this time I thought homosexuality had to do with who you had sex with, but then I find out it's all about your haircut!

People are stupid.

*adds one more person to her death list*

They're linin' up these days.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

So many potential victims...

...so little time.

[ex-jenniepan481.livejournal.com]

they just want to do you, thats all ;)

[wednes.livejournal.com]

Ew.

;-)

[itches]

Hmm, lesbian sex you say?

[wednes.livejournal.com]

Um, no. I didn't really say that.

But if you're offering...

;-)

[itches]

Lesbian sex makes the world go 'round.

[skryche.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but they're naked and they leave their blinds open. I'm willing to forgive them a (un)fair amount.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

That's funny, madush69 said something similar the first time I complained of thier rudeness.

[skryche.livejournal.com]

Hey, I've found my sleaze-doppelgänger!

[madush69.livejournal.com]

Maybe I ought to add you!

[jere7my.livejournal.com]

Well, the obvious revenge is to take pictures of them being naked and post them on the internet for me all to see! Yes. That is the winning ticket right there.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

I don't think they are that cute...

but maybe I'll put one of my minions on it. That sounds like a project they could really get behind.

;-)

[gifgal.livejournal.com]

man, that pisses ME off!

[haroeris-astrum.livejournal.com]

You have photographs?

[wednes.livejournal.com]

No. Although it would be very "dykey" of me to go ahead and take some pics of my naked female neighbors.

[haroeris-astrum.livejournal.com]

No harm in asking

[deathscythe81.livejournal.com]

Short hair does not automatically make someone a dutch girl. I know several beautiful, straight women with hella short hair. Your naked neighbors are just being ignorant.

You could screw with them a bit though. If they think you are gay then you could sit there and just watch their window so that they see you staring at them while they are naked. This could weird them out and maybe make them close their blinds.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

I don't think I would ever go to that much trouble for these people.

[paulcurtis.livejournal.com]

Even better, prop a skeleton in a chair in front of the window, holding binoculars to peer in their window. First they'll think it's someone staring...then they'll realize it doesn't move! Imagine how crazed they'll sound, complaining to people about it.

(You DO have a spare skeleton around the house, right?)

[wednes.livejournal.com]

As a matter of fact, I do.

Several.

[madush69.livejournal.com]

Don't let 'em sweat ya. Alot of the coolest people I know are gay.
I know you know that, so just take it as a compliment.
Then post naked pics of them for skryche and me.

[cmdavi-70.livejournal.com]

It is a stupid, thoughtless comment, and yet I hear people from within the gay community refer to others they see as "fags" or "dykes" based solely on their appearance, tone of voice, etc. It's sad that stereotypes are still so alive and well in this world.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

It really is the last thing I would have expected from two students living in Ann Arbor. So I guess I was doing a bit of stereotyping myself, albiet less hateful.

[everythingtold.livejournal.com]

Oh man! WTF? Yeah, definitely take it as a complement. What's wrong with people? I just don't get why adults act like that anyway. Um... I never saw pics of the haircut, I wanna see, I wanna see! :)

[wednes.livejournal.com]

I'll post some either when Ryan gets home or once H gets some batteries for his camera.

But you must try not to get too turned on by my dykey new look!

[robdeicide.livejournal.com]

Wait for them to get naked again, invite all of your friends over and then give them around of applause complete with whistling and all.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

LOL

I like the way you think!
