Categories: It Happened to Me

One last post (or: I always think of the clever lines after I leave)

Remember the story about the girl who turned me down and ended up with my lookalike?

Someone mentioned The Karate Kid earlier today, and now I’ve come up with the best line for her:

“You went for Ralph Macchio when you could’ve had Mr. Miyage.”

Thankfully Wendy appreciates my kung-fu.

(I mentioned this on IRC and someone was quick to reply “And then you could ‘wax off’ on her!” Internet people need help, man.)
