a text conversation on my way to the public hearing on the arena MOU yesterday
me: On my way to the council meeting omg omg what if I accidentally swear or trip somebody or or or my pants fall down that would be terrible D:
K: Do your pants often fall down all by themselves?
me: BUT WHAT IF THEY DID
K: Then I hope you're wearing cute underwear! Seriously, though- all you gotta do is tell them why seattle hockey would be AWESOME. Pretend they're LJ!
me: lololol that is a terrible idea. "Sup, councilpeople! You guys all saw that gif of Ovie sucking on that energy gel like a sugar-coated Crosby dick, y/y? We should seriously get a team all up in here 'cause my shitty internet streams are nowhere near the kind of resolution necessary to truly appreciate that Russian suckin' action. Thank you for your time."
K: Ok ok maybe tone it down...
I did not swear, trip anyone, or drop my pants. I actually got drowned out by applause when they realized I was holding the petition they've all been signing for months, so I couldn't finish what I was going to say, but that's probably okay since it was going to be "Seattle was the first American team to win the Stanley Cup 95 years ago, and it's time we got another shot at it!" and the crowd was 80% basketball fans and 20% union workers, so no one would have appreciated my history lesson. I did get some compliments on the awesome Frank Foyston T-shirt jersey from the 1917 Cup-winning Metropolitans team I spent like six hours making, though, so I guess some of them knew their hockey.
