Common exchange between Joe and I that Noone Gets:
Me: Shut up.
Joe: No, you shut up.
Me: You shut your mouth when you're talking to me!
Him: You're a little farm girl.
Me: You're a cigarette.
And then we laugh and try to explain which is TOTAL FAIL.
and there is something wrong with that?
(says the single guy... yet another reason why I'm probably still single)
We've become That Couple, circa 2008: our own language cobbled out of Joss Whedon, comics, and lolcats.
This is me and Tom, only replace "comics" with "Friends quotes."
Or us, replacing comics with Monty Python.
Back at Rice, a couple of my friends had a repeated series of quotes from
The Mikado,
Beauty and the Beast,
and
Batman.
Among others.
If someone started it, they would go through the whole thing like a secret handshake. I forget how it all went at this point, but they were complete non sequiturs like "Silence!" and "That's not a request!" and "To the Batcave!"
Joe is also the only person that understands my pidgin sign language.
Isn't that just your middle finger?
I think she sometimes does the Spike reverse peace sign that isn't about peace too.
(
yes, I know that its a Brit thing with the bowsmen and stuff

Whedon, LOLcats, and Blackadder for us.
