"We got those huge, square-shaped fireworks for a pretty good deal - $100 for one, but buy one get one free. You know the ones right?"
Me: Blank stare
"C'mon - they are about this big and square-shaped?"
"Ummm...I don't typically go shopping for fireworks other than those little spinning, squealy guys and sparklers. And I could never justify spending $100 for 8 seconds of fire-y magic "
"You are such a girl."
On a side note - has anyone else been perpetually plagued with the earworm, "Baby, you're a fiiiiiirework!" during this holiday season? Someone make it stop!

I have the same response to fireworks. Does that make ME a girl too?
$100 on fireworks? I don't think so, especially since you can always see better ones for FREE.
$100 not spent on fireworks = $100 to spend on something cool, like a new pair of shoes.
I guess I'm "such a girl" too.
@ Stephen - you can be a girl if you really want to, I guess. Maybe if you make fireworks WITH a girl, that will give you back your man card?
@Abby - AMEN! I'm much more likely to spend $100 on new clothes...or car repairs...or...anything that will last longer than 8 seconds that I can't get for free elsewhere:-)
