Damn, I'm going to be singing that all day now!

Incidentally, I kind of love (I mean, in a way which makes me feel like a very dirty mouse indeed) when he lists the super-mature things they dicussed when she was 13. I mean, granted I was a pretentious little twerp when I was thirteen (and really, it's not THAT hard to find a teenager who talks about Rocky Horror and politics, et cetera, and thinks he or she is the shit because of it), but neither that, nor my C-cup-since-fifth-grade-rack, actually made me the equivalent of a legal adult. Nor did the fact that I thought I was smarter than 99% of my same age peers and Too Cool For School, which basically seems to be his definition of "mature." Frequently it just makes you kind of a dink.

I have to confess, the moment he listed "Rocky Horror" as one of the Terribly Mature Conversation Topics, I had to wonder if he was lying about being older than his 13-year-old girlfriend. Has this movie ever been considered profound or mature by anyone who passed the ninth grade?

That said, the Gary Puckett connection has totally distracted me from this wank. Oh, Gary Puckett.

Beneath your perfume and makeup
You're just a baby in disguise
And though you know that it's wrong to be
Alone with me
It's cool because we agree on the deeper hidden meaning of Tim Curry's performance of "Sweet Transvestite"...

	Fun movie, yes. Profound and mature? Not so much. I would guess that anyone who would think it mature, because OMG, there's all this sex!, is not terrible mature himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh, fun, sure. I'm not going to argue that Rocky Horror isn't an enjoyable movie. I'm just saying that using it as an example of a mature, respectable topic for a twentysomething to discuss with a 13-year-old he may or may not be perving on just plain ol' doesn't work.

	The funny thing is, I was about 13 when I first heard about Rocky Horror myself, and I remember thinking when I saw the news reports about it on TV, "This looks really stupid". Of course I was a paragon of maturity and sophistication as a child, with the impeccable taste of, at LEAST, a 14-year-old. So that's just me. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I must have missed a stage, then, because I went right from "Ew, this movie is weird" to "HAHAHAHA this is great :D." (Reply to this)(Parent)

Don't forget STAR WARS.

Like, I feel that anyone that was born after 1976 can claim that as a conversation topic.

As creepy as it is, I'm envisioning a socially-retarded 24 year old with a precocious, annoying 13 year old smart-ass who'd I'd probably want to punch in the face at that age, and would still probably want to punch in the face at 21, in which case I'm happy they found each other to be awful together.

-M. Ouse.

	I was thinking more of Randy Newman's "Shame." I don't know why I'm also thinking of his song "Beware of the Naked Man," because it has nothing to do with anything, but whatever... (Reply to this)(Parent)
