I know most of you are terribly fond of the razor necklace, but I have to say, I get a lot of comments on it when I wear it. Oh sure, some of them are are inquiries about my possible coke habit, but some people really like it. It’s been described as rad, cool, interesting, fierce, odd, strange and great. And some people can’t seem to find the appropriate words to describe it. It’s a conversation starter, if nothing else.
The other day, they were grilling cheeseburgers for lunch, upstairs at the cafe in my POE. You paid for it inside, as per usual, and then went outside to have your burger grilled right there in front of you. The chef said to me, “that’s an…. interesting necklace.” I assured her that I was neither a cutter nor a coke addict, and discussed my necklace’s obvious merits with other co-workers in line.
Someone joined us in line, and asked how this whole bbq thing worked, did they pay first or get the burger first and the chef clarified the procedure.
Me: of course, you could just SAY you paid for your burger and get a free lunch
Chef: now come on! you’d do that?
Me: Heck yeah I would … look at me! I’m a bad ass! I’m wearing a razor blade around my neck, for pete’s sake.
That’s me. B-A-D ass.
