This Adds Value To My Village

October 10, 2006

The Value Village in Guelph sells the greatest crap on earth.

“Look! The pink flamingos are on sale,” I said. “And they’re dressed up in fedoras!”

I chased her through the layers of mothballed clothes and kissed her. “Can we get some pink flamingos? Please?”

She opted to get some pants instead. Sure, pants will keep you warm for a while but pink flamingos are forever. Girls just don’t understand what men need. But I didn’t grow too despondent — after all, every single corner of the thrift store was filled with wonders.

Thus, my eyes widened as we passed the Halloween displays.

“Let’s turn ourselves into monsters and make love with rubber masks pulled over our faces!”

“What a terrifying idea,” she said, with a mixture of fear and disgust on her face. Sometimes she shoots down my brightest ideas.

as a flamingo girl, I have trouble understanding her decision.

I think that sex with rubber masks on would be very scary. Even if they were non-scary masks.
