Lively, Gay Play

Fun:  Lively, gay play or playfulness; merriment; amusement; sport; recreation; joking.


The next time that some one says to me: "So . . . what do you do for fun?" I'm going to deck them.  Out of nowhere, big round house sucker punch right on the nose.  I've read that the nose is the place to target - soft, painful, incapacitates the other guy while not doing much damage to your hand.  I've heard the mouth is no good - too many hard teeth.  And this from a guy who's never been in a fight in his life.  


"What do you do for fun?" is a comment from someone who is laying down the gauntlet.  They don't give a shit what you do for fun - they're all wound up to tell you what they do for fun.  It's kind of a fun-off, a fun competition.  Our society is so competitive that we have to have more fun than the next guy.  Everything's a race with us.


"Well, I had so much fucking fun today that I could barely stand it," I'm going to say next time.  "I was paralyzed with overwhelming, knee-buckling fun.  I'm having heart palpitations just thinking about much fucking fun I had, and I'm going to have even more fun tomorrow," I'd add, jabbing my finger in their chest.


If I'm really rolling I'll snort when they tell me what kind of fun they had.  That'll show them.
