on misandry and Lady Gaga

  • Me: Your response looks so great! I haven't started yet ><
  • Zach: It's really just two pages of angry rambles and snarky remarks, haha. But it didn't take long so you'll be fine.
  • Me: Except I have read, oh, nothing! I think I'm gonna rant about Gaga instead.
  • Zach: Hahah always a good alternative.
  • Me: I don't get how "Bad Romance" is misandrist...
  • Zach: Yeah, nor "Telephone". Because they kill men...and women...
  • Me: It's the 'bad romance' that causes all the violence! That's my interpretation. Can I just watch all the Gaga videos ever instead of doing homework? I loves her so.
  • Zach: Oh that's an interesting take. I hadn't considered that. I just have trouble with any misandrist argument. I immediately think they're just being whiny and reactionary to a loss of power.
  • Me: Plus 'Earl had to die.'
  • Zach: Right. I've known that for years.

  • Zach: Hey I'm not feeling too well so I'm skipping class. Take notes for me?
  • Me: Boo poor thing. Have fun on tumblr! :p
  • Zach: Haha you know me too well. This may be the first time I'm actually upset I have to miss class. Damn masculinities for being so interesting and fun.

  • Me: Don't worry, we didn't get to Gaga yet.
  • Zach: Thank Gaga.
