false advertising

July 10, 2008

This is not me:

Looks like this is one candidate who’s coming up from behind.

? Dana Martin for President

I fucking wish it were me. It could have been me, if I’d thunk of it first. Also, it’s a lot like me, especially the coming up from behind bit.*

*That sounds worse than I intended. I mean, as in “I love sneaking up on bottoms,” not as in “I love sneaking up on bottoms.” Not that there’s anything wrong with the latter. It’s just not what I meant.

    I think this is a joke, somehow perpetrated by one Jillypoet, the Queen of Rusery. I don’t know how she did it, but I suspect this is a news item manufactured to make me think it’s about a “Dana Martin.” I dunno, though. I am a little suspicious when I shouldn’t be. At times.

    I think you’re right, because if you watch it the whole way through you get the chance to fill in the name of a friend and have the same trick played on them.
    Quite clever, especially the bit with the tattoo on the elderly woman’s - uhh - back. How they manage to personalise that video clip for everyone, I don’t know.

    Catherine, I knew when I posted it that it was a trick, but I posted it anyway, since it is funny. I should watch it and send a copy with your name on it to you.

    Are you the SAME Dana Martin who used to live here at this address a couple of months ago? If not, what have you done with her body, or are you some kind of alien being who is inhabiting her body? Shall I call the cops? The FBI? At this moment, I am about to dial 911.

    Oh, wait…maybe You are the REAL Dana, and the OTHER one was an imposter….in any case, you will have a lot of explaining to do when those 911 guys knock on your door.

    Joyce, you are onto me. I am not the same Dana Martin who was blogging here a couple of months ago. I never was that Dana Martin. That Dana Martin has been preserved, stuffed, sewn shut and propped up in a chair over in the corner. See? See her there, smiling her perpetual smile.

    Oh! That’s a poem idea. I am off … to poem.

    I thought you were only writing prose this summer. I guess that was another Dana Martin.
    I’m not eligible to be president of the US since I wasn’t born there. Besides, I’ve always thought that anyone who actually wants to be president is too crazy to be fit to be president. It’s a good joke, though.
    (Sorry to be a bit thick about your knowing it was a joke)

    Catherine, you can be as thick as you want in these parts.

    I like Obama. I think he’s not crazy. Or not too crazy.

Got something to say?
