Men: I don't get them.

This morning, Darkside and I were talking, and he made some reference to bonking me over the head with a battery-operated tool. I looked blank, and he indicated the sort of thing he was talking about. I cracked up laughing: Darkside, joking around about vibrators?

Our conversation veered a little bit, and somehow I cracked up over a sick thought that I didn't reveal. Darkside wondered aloud what I was laughing over: using Pikachu as a battery for a battery operated toy? As a matter of fact, that had been my very mental image. He's getting better at following my nonstandard and very eerie leaps of thought.

Later in the day, when I was walking him out to his car, I had a favor to ask of him: would he give me a ride? I was hesitating over asking, however, so he said: "Speak now, or forever hold your peace -- but in your case, I'd say 'battery operated toy'..." (punning on the homonym peace/piece)...

What gives? Darkside, joking about vibrators?

But then, there was the moment when I was hanging with him before Social Issues & Tech started, and he'd said something funny and cute; instead of giving him a hug and/or kiss, I laid the Vulcan grip on his neck. "I think that nerve-pinching you as a sign of affection is better than giving you a kiss," I said.

"Eeew!" he said, cringing. "You said the K word!"


Asked Echo about the situation. Evidently this is one of the more weird questions he's been asked. He wanted to know had Darkside ever seen my vibrators, or seen me use them. No? Had Darkside ever been to my house? Yes? Then don't be so sure about his having not seen them. Oh. Not within the past nine months, and the vibrator jokes are a new thing? Huh. Maybe he's getting off on thinking about your vibrators; I wouldn't let him borrow them, if I were you. So he's not interested in a relationship? Then he wants to have sex. Ohhh, so he said you're 'not his type'? Every woman is every man's type. And that thing about me pulling the big sister thing on Darkside? Maybe that turns him on. If you want to sleep with him, play it up!

He called Votania back. Evidently the conversation that he and I had deeply disturbed him. Heh.
