Summary: Dom just wanted some gelato. But he got something a lot sweeter instead.

Warnings: Lots of PG-13 Italian swearing. Best enjoyed with its inspirational song. Happy Easter, youse, if that's your thing.

( won't let this city destroy us, won't let this city destroy our luuurrve )

The dialect in this story makes me SO HAPPY. It's freaking amazing. And they're so cuuuuuuuuuuute. <3

Thank youuu. (This is secretly just how my brain talks sometimes.) <3 Hazard a guess just what city's dialect it is? Chicago has already been well disproven above. This is the big big hint! ;-)

"Couldn’t afford it when youse fucked off."

(The other hint would be Dom's sandwich preferences...)

You have so many fun voices in your brain. I want to visit sometime, it must be like a Dialect Enthusiast Convention in there.

Hee, the Gayborhood gave it away. X3 Philly it is!

'Convention' is one way to diagnose it... X)

You win the challenge! (And yes, it ought to, because 'Midtown Village' my left foot.) You are welcome to redeem the offer to gimme a prompt, or you can just sit smugly with the satisfaction that your knowledge of gay/city lore is superior to all. :)

XD I hear ya. 'Asylum' often fits. At least in my head.

Oooh, I missed that somehow. :3 Um. Um. Er. The first thing that pops into my head when you are about is your Academics, and I can't help but wonder how one of the Classics bunch might get along with, say, Postmodern Lit. Or, hell, Non-Euclidian Geometry.

If you involve either Cartesian coordinates or rationalism, though, you must include this joke:

Rene Descartes went into his favorite bar and the bartender asked, "Would you like your usual drink, Monsieur Descartes?" Descartes replied "I think not," and promptly disappeared.

Yes I am a terrible geek.

ahaha that is one of my favorite all-time jokes. hmmm...

AND. Thank you for playing along with my lazy whims. That is an excellent idea, and the answer to your question shall be: epic bitch-off. For a long time I thought the Medieval Lit grads/profs were the only ones secretly whinging/gossiping about the Post/moderists, and then I found out that they refer to us as 'basement dwellers'. Which makes no sense as we are located on the 2nd floor, proving once more that Postmodernists lack basic counting skills. IT'S WAR.

Sometimes I make rude postmodernist comics: http://guckindieluft.tumblr.com/post/5805109252/medievalist-v-modernist-technology-smackdown

Huzzah!

XD It is unforgivably nerdy and I love it.

Ooooh, so it would be like Romeo and Juliet, except with much less poison, knives, and teenagers? :3

HAR, so true! Wait, does that mean that I'm a Classicist at school and Postmodern at home? @_@
