Current conversation in the house, parental discretion advised.
....
"Says admission is 2 dollars."
"Wow. That's a token f*ck."
"More like a pity f*ck."
"How do you know the difference between a token f*ck and a pity f*ck?"
(okay, done censoring for you. If you aren't offended yet, keep reading.)
"One is all 'aw, I guess you should have something' and the other is 'eh, here's something."
"So which is better...the token fuck or the pity fuck?"
"The token fuck."
"Really? I would have thought the pity fuck. I would think you'd put more effort into it."
"Nah. You aren't trying with a pity fuck. But with a token fuck, you care just enough to try to enjoy it a little."
"I'd think you'd enjoy the pity fuck more, out of a sense of charity."
"Nah."
"Well, it's not exactly a high caliber scale to begin with. What were we talking about?"
"A comic book show, being held behind a hotel."
"Oh, yeah."
Conversations with my husband cover a broad range, from string theory to...yeah. At least we didn't discuss dog snot.
