The virtual offices of rocknyc are not much different than your more traditional joints. We have our infighting, our ego struggles our back talking our practical jokes and our office romances.
Considering all but our dear Alyson are nestled in the upper right hand corner of the map, its inevitable that team rivalries will happen as well. Happens at football season, Jets, Giants Patriots. Happens now Sox, Yankees and well we pretty much don’t bother with the Mets (except for Todd), they’re the little engines that could.
So its not surprising that there would be some high risk betting going on when our teams meet.
Friday night my Boston babies bussed to the Bronx to meet up with … them…. the yankees.
So Iman and I whipped it out squared off and made a bet.
I wont divulge what the Blogmaster asked of me- but I agreed. Why? Cuz I know my boys and although somewhat weak this season, they never ever let me down when a bets involved.
So what did Iman agree to do if his wonderful yankees lost?
He’s going vegetarian for 48 hours.
And so, since I am a compassionate girl, I offer you
The Vegetarian Starter Kit Playlist, to help the boy through the rough spots.
1- We’re So Starving- Panic At the Disco. No flesh? Protein dip.. he’ll be feeling as a tape worm moved in. Psychologically of course, cuz vegetarians and vegans survive just fine.
2- Meat Is Murder- The Smiths. This may actually make it tougher, to hear the moo of the cow in the intro may actually have the man jonesin’ for a quarter pounder with cheese
3- Don’t Trust Me- 3oh!3- I love this song. “black dress, with the tights underneath”, ‘ tell your boyfriend,if he thinks he’s got beef- that I’m a vegetarian and I’m not fucking scared of him’…. this couldn’t be more perfect if it tried. AND its fun to dance too.
4-Free Me- Goldfinger A gorgeous song. A video I haven’t seen in so long I forgot how painful it is. It makes me proud of the lifestyle I live, it makes me proud that Iman will do this even briefly.
5-(if you’re wondering if I want you to) I Want You To- Weezer “you’re mom made meatloaf even though I don’t eat meat”)
6- Don’t Kill The Animals-Nina Hagen & Lena Lovich. Two freakin amazingly fkd up broads who I adore
7-Earth Hymn- Manfred Mann’s Earthband yeah I can get hippy for a cause
8- Fruit Salad, Yummy Yummy,- The Wiggles- shut up we sing it all the time. Its called diverse musical enjoyment.
9- Be Healthy- Dead Prez, SEXY and wonderful
10- New Age Girl- Dead Eyed Dick RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrah…
Best of luck my dear.. I’m here to support you .. and laugh like hell ..
GO SOX!
