Yesterday I took my mom to a doctor appointment and lying on a table in the waiting room was this magazine!
I looked at the headline and all I could think of was: This must be some artist or actor talking about why he left the city of Vienna. I wondered why he would leave Vienna. I wondered what had happened to him there. I was reaching for the magazine, interested, when I saw the smaller headlines, and realized my mistake.
Oh, of course, Vienna was a woman. It was not the city.
Someone named a kid Vienna.
Then I felt stupid, thinking, what did I expect? Gustav Mahler discussing discrimination he felt he suffered at the Vienna State Opera? What?
Moments like this remind me of what a nerd I am.
C'mon! "People" magazine? The legit article would have been "Why I Left Gustav" by Alma!
ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha! Right you are, Prof!
ReplyDeleteAnd a sub headline would read "Kicky pics of trophy wife with new Aryan boy toy."
