The last straw
by zoss in pessoal, funI’ve been feeling this pain in my right arm for a while now. It is faint most of the time, but once a day it ramps into this sharp piercing pain.
All evidence points to a pinched nerve, which shouldn’t be a problem once I get time to visit a massage therapist and, more importantly, replace my shoulder bag.
This morning, I received –what I will choose to interpret as– another sign that the shoulder bag should go. A three-year-old girl turned to her mom as I passed them by and asked, “Mommy, is he a mailman?”

but, but how do you replace the shoulder bag?!
backpacks are too juvenile and how else are you supposed to conveniently drag around your inconvenient things? trolley?!
it’s just a pinched nerve! better than running pains up and down your left arm– you have to keep the shoulder bag you just have to– in the interests of impractical fashion, in the interests of having another person to point to support me on the street when i’m starting to hobble around like igor manic
because I LIKE MY SHOULDER BAG DAMN IT, I JUST DO
…

no backbacks aren’t juvenile if you are still a student. which u are even though you are crippled with age tab3an.
dude, shoulder bags are not for the straight. thank god the little girl didn’t say “mommy, is he a homosexual?”
