GIRL! She's a Girl! Psych.Here's how typical 'girl' type conversations go for me:
Sister the Youngest: I want to go get more make-up!
Sister the Step: Me too! Let's go to Sephora!
Me: No. I could spend that money on books. Or comics. Or video games. Possibly on cooking stuff. So no.
Both Sisters: Can't you be more of a girl?
or
Girl who is not dating my Brother: You're not very...feminin
e are you?
Me: Nope.
Girl who is not dating my Brother: Don't you

[few minutes later]
Brother: Why is Judy* outside screeching?
Me: I think she realized her life is a sham and she should jump off a cliff. How's that make you feel?
Brother: :shrugs: I'll miss the free food and movie tickets.
Me: HEAR THAT JUDY? HE'LL MISS THE FREE FOOD AND MOVIE TICKETS!
Brother: I don't think she liked that answer.
Me: Nope, but that's all she's getting from this family.
My Prom:
Ex-Friend: We should put make up on you! And do your hair! and nails!
Me: No.
Ex-Friend: Please?
Me: No.
Ex-Friend: But how will you get asked to dance then?
Me: Look if they didn't ask me in the last 11 years of going to school together, they won't ask now.
Ex-Friend: So what
will you do all night?
Me: Me and the boys plan to see how long we can play poker before one of the chaperones find out. I think Eric* is bringing the paintball set too--it shouldn't ruin my dress too much, though they will have the advantage over me...
Ex-Friend: :fainted from shock...I'm not even joking:
(point in fact I made $75 that night, no paintballing tho)
or my personal favorite:
Ex-Classmate Friend: you've uh...developed finally huh?
Me: Wha? Oh yeah I got breasts. I don't look like a 12 year old boy anymore. Whyso?
Ex-Classmate Friends: You are very...busty now.
Me: Yeah sorry about that.
Ex-Classmate Friend: Why're you sorry this is good for you!
Me: Yeah but I know you preferred the flat as a boy look on me better. Now will you stop asking me out?
Ex-Classmate Friend: What the fuck?! That's not why I liked you!
Me: Damn grew these puppies for nothing. Oh well I can't return them now.
Here's how one went tonight:
Sister the Youngest: I can't wait for Thursday! I need a new outfit!
Me: I have an outfit I need a haircut! ::looks at hands:: And maybe a manicure.
Father: I will chip in to this Aley wants to do a girl thing!
Sister the Youngest: Yay! Aley is a girl after all!
Father: How much is it?
Sister the Youngest: Its only $32!
Me: On second thought I'll file them and use that money for a down payment on my Nintendo 3DS.
Father and Sister: NOT THE POINT.
