abe lincoln's a girl?!
we didn't make the news
but we made some people do a double-take...
basically, peter, his brother ben, and i all went to the mall today, dressed presidential. mainly to get a reaction. and because it was a much better presidents' day idea than watching historical movies! so we looked pretty fly. and we got a lot of really, really interesting reactions
i was gaybraham lincoln, peter was a young and nappy george washington, ben was a secret service agent and/or a young kennedy. WHATHAVEYOU.
PS, my version of gayb wore skinnies. mainly because i have no other black pants. also because i was gaybraham.
omg presidential myspace with tom (our time machine!)
we lookin' noble.
so anyway.
most enthusiastic reaction, from a 30-some businesstype
"YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME. I MEAN. I MEAN. GOD BLESS AMERICA."
(awkward response! "thank you patriot! UHH whooo america!")
most terrifying reaction, from a 19 year old gangster in the apple store
"looks like someone missed when they tried to shoot lincoln. maybe imma try again!"
"please don't, good sir!"
most pathetic reaction, from overeyelinered 12 year olds
"presidents' day? is that why we're not in school?"
most nonsensical reaction, from an auntie anne's employee
"ah! abraham lincoln! looking good! how's your friend hitler?"
"WELL NOW! i don't anything about that fellow!"
"SURE SURE."
most embarassing reaction, on my part, to some kid who said we looked awesome
"you brighten my day with your liberty and enthusiasm."
most surprising question(s), by a redheaded 10 year old and his friends, who wanted to take a picture with us
"do presidents smoke pot?"
"ABSOLUTELY NOT, young patriot!"
"can i be president some day?"
"if you don't do drugs!"
"can i eat poop then?"
"ABSOLUTELY NOT."
anyway it was an entertaining afternoon and i am absolutely exhausted. it was awesome.
so yeah, pictures and presidential exploits detailed in above cut.
happy presidents' day.
