Friend Zach and I have been engaging in some light banter since the Lakers ugly victory over the Celtics last night. And by "light banter" I mean vicious cruelty, because what's the point of having friends if you can't rub it in?
Backstory: I loathe the Boston Celtics.
Also: Zach hates the Lakers in general and Pau Gasol in particular (no idea why - most people hate Kobe - which I understand).
Special bonus: Zach now lives in Boston, so he's extra close to recent events.
I texted him last night after the big win:
midnight eastern time: Pau Gasol wants you to gargle his balls with rosewater and sugarplums.
no response indicates I've struck a nerve, so 10 minutes later I said: rosewater
still nothing, so 10 minutes after that I said: sugarplums
I didn't hear from him so I thought I'd twist the dagger a little more, see if I could get his attention via email. See image for a summary.
His response was not appropriate for a family blog. It was the kind of thing you say to a really close friend or someone you despise. I think I'm both right now. Which is exactly what I was aiming at.
I'm enjoying this almost as much as the Lakers win. Almost.
