Which Reminds Me of Another Amusing Anecdote

By Joseph Sutton

One time I was in a dating server 

(Don’t ask why, I’m not exactly suave) 

The owner became my friend and asked 

“Hey, can you do my homework?” He was four years my senior, I was twelve But I did it well and he made me co-owner. Also, he was a nazi apparently Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

When I was a little kid, I was a picky eater 

You know, like all kids 

But when my grandparents gave me spinach 

Oh boy, I was incredibly hesitant 

And when I took a bite of the cheesy leaves 

I was quickly reminded that I have a gag reflex, which is unfortunate Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

I knew this cute guy online 

We debated politics for some reason 

(Teenagers know what is best for the future) 

I was a silly conservative man and he was a lib 

Looking back, I was totally wrong except

He said that Stalin did nothing wrong, and that wouldn’t be the last time I heard this Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

I was in an acting class one semester 

Given a role for an assignment 

I was supposed to be regular Joe, 

My partner was a fortune teller 

While we were improvising, I said something silly 

I forgot what I said but somehow it turned her brown skin red and I was befuddled Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

At a smash local, the organizer brought his girlfriend 

Big mistake, if you knew these kinds of people 

I was being friendly and hardly even realized 

She was being huddled around by weirdos 

It was my friends who pointed it out after 

Needless to say, we never saw her at that local again (I never went again) Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

I was playing One Piece 

Which, yes, it’s real 

I was playing Zephyr 

(Hi, I’m Timmy) 

Against the second best in the room 

I dunked on him from orbit and he complained about my luck 

Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

I have a friend who just became woman

Good for her, but it was obvious 

I once said to them, “Haha, you tried on a skirt.” 

Well, they rejected the comment at first 

I thought they were just pushing back at my sillies 

But apparently it made them happy which made them angry 

Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

Most of my partners have transitioned 

I don’t know, I guess I just transed their gender? 

Regardless, that was when I was a kid 

So it makes sense that it would happen at that time 

But then something weird happened 

When I became an adult all of the people I was attracted to were already trans Which reminds me of another amusing anecdote 

The gays I know are all a little silly 

(But I’m sillier) 

One time a lesbian said: 

“When I get donuts, I always get filled or glazed” 

Then I replied: “I thought you were a lesbian,” and she screamed that I shouldn’t say things that  are scary
