banter fun

Snippit from this morning's JeffTalk:

We have been discussing how insane Jeff is because he thinks Servilia from Rome is stunningly beautiful. My response (and the response of all sane people) has been, "Yeah --like forty years ago maybe!"

Jeff: I didn't realize you were so ageist. You hate old people. And the handicapped[1].
Me: Well now you know. I have, of course, made an exception in your case.
Jeff: Watch it, Dain Bramage Girl![2]


[1] Jeff's never forgiven me for laughing hysterically when he was earnestly excited about this company that does... ballet... in... wheelchairs. He has no idea why that is so incredibly funny. I have since been labeled an Enemy of the Differently Abled.

[2] A term he finds hilarious and I find utterly moronic.

It's possible - I did think it was a trifle odd that *he* was passing judgment on her looks! Unless it was in a completely nonsexual manner, which is what I figured had to be the case.

And it's true, I wouldn't lust after her, either. ...but it's safest not to ask me if I've *ever* lusted after someone 2-3X my age. Hee.

He does point out hot women regularly as an observer. Not that we normally agree on them or anything!

And I like older men often, but not older women. (Excepting in the case of the ever-awesome Susan Sarandon!)

And safe? Who wants to be safe! *grin*

What would the fun be if you had the same tastes? :)

Sarandon is, indeed, drop-dead sexy even at her age.

That's true. We'd just end up on Sally Jessy Raphael shrieking over "GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY MAN" or something.

I think Sarandon just always will. She just has IT.
