Ronald McDonald glove slapping some poser for not lovin' it.
from: http://www.appletreeblog.com/wp-content/2008/04/ronald-slap.jpg

My friend, Dustin, has an imagination and a sense of humor. Both are odd and awesome. I can say it's odd because it's very similar to the type of humor my family has and hardly anyone gets it (so don't get offended, Dustin; you're in with the cool crowd). Hence, I can also say it's awesome. If you don't find some odd humor in it, I guess you know where you stand.

P.S. This occurred through gchat. Thank you.


Dustin's Gmail status: glove slap
me: What is this glove slap?

Dustin: no idea. i just thought it was cool. Kind of a snooty and disrespectful-challenge sorta thing

me: I want to steal it.

Dustin: go for it
we'll start a status gang

me: wonder if I could get my mom to change hers.
and here I said something Dustin did not like, hence the following:

Dustin: I GLOVE SLAP you with my white isotoners.

me: what the freak are white isotoners?

Dustin: isotoners are/were rich people gloves back when.

me: you read a lot of Jane Austen, huh

Dustin: you're so totally cruising for a GS

me: (changed my status to "2handed glove slap")
I just doubled yours

Dustin: not possible. Double implies the number 2. Number 2 means second place. I am singular, meaning number one. I win.

me: that was goodness in its purest form

Dustin: i mean, just imagine getting slapped by a white one of these:



Biggest. Insult. Ever.

me: I want the man to wear tight pants
and step out of a carriage first.
And take off his monocle before slapping the heck outta someone. 
Dustin: of course he would. but his name would definitely NOT be Mr. Darcy

me: Then he should promptly step back into his carriage

Dustin: exactly
such pomp. such arrogance.

me: Who did he slap, anyway?
I have no idea. It doesn't matter.

Dustin: everyone.
all of them

me:  The whole circle of people stood around, dazed after Mr. Monocle, in a 360 motion, glove slapped the entire audience.

Dustin: correction: the entire towne. Notice the elitist 'e' added to the end of the word town.

me: So the towne was standing arounde and got glove slapped downe?

Dustin: Yes.

me: This is a queer conversation.
Queer in the late-baroque sense of the word

Dustin: this is a queer conversation:


After which, we immediately began discussing rock climbing and Dustin getting jumped by his mountain bike & breaking ribs. His bike totally GS'd him!

I suggest you begin using glove slaps to let people know you are offended or that they are encroaching upon your social class.
