So What?

Miss Contradiction and I were handed about a bazillion free drinks cards last Thursday night when lurking around the SoSoBar and we noticed the cards say 'So On Us' on them. I mean, how cool is that? Because using the word so is, like, so American, and anything they do in America must be, like, so way cool. Cowabunga.

All the best phrases have so in them:

* So not
* So gay
* So last week
* So over

And my personal all-time favourite:

* You are, like, SO DEAD (double whammy of so and like).

I'd love to see those phrases worked into the hole's marketing strategy.

Everytime I hear the word 'so' it conjures up images of some vacant American broad chewing gum and twirling her hair around one finger, kinda like Paris 'Herpes' Hilton. Which is DEFINITELY an image you want associated with your club.

NOT!!!

Wouldn't they have been better off modelling their club around the lingo of some earthy Australian shelia... like, say... Miss Contradiction or myself?

Oh wait, no. Then it would be called the Crapulent Bar. Maybe not.

The free entry cards say

"You're SO in"

I can't even think of something to say about them, they're SO fucked up...

Does Robbie have that phrase tattooed on his arse?

I actually think Robbie is my physio's brother's girlfriend's friend. Which makes him very sad indeed. And before you ask, yes, I do have a very close personal relationship with all of my health care professionals (except my dentist - that's just sick).

But more importantly, can you link him with Kevin Bacon in less than seven degrees?

Bugger this anonymous thing, I'm reclaiming the title of Mosman Mattress (a title I rightfully held for most of my high school years but which due to long term relationships and the inevitable "maturity" I had to relinquish - now being single for the first time in a long time I plan to take advantage of my years of experience)... fuck, now I forget what I was going to say...

Oh right, well no I can't link him to Kevin Bacon but I can link him to Kevin who serves Bacon & Egg McMuffins at McDonald's on Thursday nights and Saturday mornings.

HAHA. Mosman Mattress. What an awesome name.

'Manly Mattress' is one of my all-time favourite putdowns.

I love Kevin Bacon.

I don't like Robbie.

Robbie is evil and looks like he needs a bath in blotting powder.

Town Bike said...
