Why, honey, you look sharp as a razor.
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.

Is your voice 14, already?!?! It seems like only yesterday that it was something like 9, or maybe 12, at the oldest! Ha!
You are a bad ass, though, even if I know for a fact that you paid for your burger!

I still maintain that I sound AT LEAST 14. Perhaps, someday, I'll conduct a poll.

"Pete's sake" and "badass" rarely travel together.

I know when I met you for the first time, I was thinking to myself..."Self, watch out for this bad ass woman, she will cut you"

Wasn't there a movie, man, 20 years ago, in which a woman slips a razor out from beneath her tongue and uses it to slit the throat of the guy she was just snuggling with?
I'm surprised that doesn't come up in conversation.
