Low Res Man
Saw a guy today. He was walking on the other side of the street to me. Something about him caught my eye. “Ooh, he looks cute” I thought. Zhuzhed up my hair (you know, that kind of shaky thing you do to give it oopmh?), smoothed down my coat, checked there wasn’t any loo roll stuck to my shoe etc. Prepared for our eyes to meet across the road and was ready to cruise him good & proper. He looked very cute.
He wasn’t.
He was low-res. A classic example of low-res man. Nice from a distance, but a bit shocking close up.
I have no idea where I found this image. If it's yours, soz.
So I quickly averted my eyes and continued walking home. Had this song stuck in my head ever since. I’ll never forgive him for that either.
Life lesson? I guess some things are always going to be better from a distance.
Low res – excellent description! It’s as bad as seeing a guy from behind and thinking…mmm… Then he turns around and the disappointment is immense!
Is there such a thing as hi-res man then? The kind of guy who doesn’t seem much at first glance, but proves to be really rather good after closer examination?
heh….nice
Ooh I was commenting on your site as you were commenting on mine. I feel almost post coital now, with the symbiosis of it all
