Great Moments in Boyfriend Humor, Part Eleventy-Quillion

"How much does a flight to Atlanta cost?"

"Why?"

"Because I'm going to hop a plane and whale on Peacock for getting 'Eye in the Sky' stuck in my head."

"Hey. That's what I said."

"I mean now I have the entire three lines that I know from that song going through my head. I am the maker of rules . . . I mean I went a nice peaceful decade without hearing that song since I quit listening to classic rock and now it's back and I want to kill him."

"If it helps, substitute the Paint Your Wagon version."

"It's not helping."

[Pause]

"I'm serious. Pull up Expedia."

Teeheehee.

It could be worse. I might have planted Don't Answer Me. That one has true earwiggery properties.

Oh, you fuck. Here I was about to defend "EITS", and then you had to remind us why Alan Parsons is really, after all, just a fat, uninsipired prick who happened to get lucky by associating with Pink Floyd, and milked out a recording contract.

"Don't Answer Me" especially offends me with its overkill of timpanis. ATTN SONGWRITERS: Borrowing one magical element from "Wouldn't It Be Nice" will not make your bad song wonderful.
