Driving to work. The radio is playing. As can only happen in the ear-bleeding wasteland that is Halifax radio, Marky Mark started playing. I shook my head in desperation.
Me: Damn. Ossssscar-nominee, Marky Mark. Wow. Did you ever think you’d say that? “Oscar-nominee, Marky Mark”? Or “Oscar winner, Eminem”? Or “Oscar winners, Three…”
[Pause.]
Me: Damn. What’s their name?
My Lovely Wife: Who?
Me: You know… “It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp”. Three… something Mafia.
My Lovely Wife: Three… Four Mafia? Three… Twenty-Two Mafia?
Me: Three… Alligator Mafia…?
My Lovely Wife: Oh! Three 6 Mafia!
Me: Yes! That’s it!
[Pause.]
Me: Yeah. We’re hip.
Does anyone else feel their soul die a little when they see the Wendy’s commercial with “Blister in the Sun” in the background?
Am I the only one?
‘Cause it makes me feel dirty inside.
