Glad I Didn’t Waste ‘Don’t Cry For Me Avocado’ On Such A Grouch
Jump to Comments
Book Pitch: The Madonna Diet. It will be nothing but pictures of Madonna's arms and, when hunger strikes, just open the book and that shit is instantly curbed. I'll make millions!
Boss: “Are you even listening to me?”
Me: “Oh, um, no. I’m actually up in my head, rewriting Madonna songs to include things found in the store.”
Boss: *sigh* “Really?”
Me: “Yes. Check it out.” *singing* “Hollandaise! Celebrate! If we took some hollandaise, poured it on our eggs…”
Boss: …
Me: “Wait! Where are you going? You haven’t heard ‘Like A Gherkin’!”

It’s a terrible thing to have a Madonna song stuck in your head but Like a Gherkin is a much less painful alternative.

Your boss really needs to put his priorities in order. Singing Madonna songs is ALWAYS more important than anything else. Duh.

Madonna songs are always appropriate.

Now, I like Madonna, mostly. And I am just as interested as the next gal in pretending to try and get fit. But Bill Maher said it best when he said (@Madonna) “It’s time to stop working out when your arms look like Clint Eastwood’s penis.”

And Bill Maher would know what Clint Eastwood’s penis would look like….

I would love to hear ‘Like A Gherkin’! It would be awesome! And seriously, he can’t be mad right? This would be like that YouTube sensation the Trader Joe song. Your store would be a legend. Legend I say!

Weird Al Yankovich is interested in the rights to “Like a Gherkin” and “Hollandaise”.

Seriously, I thought I was the only person on earth who had these kinds of things running through her head! Thanks for making me feel like less of a social outcast!
