Funny story.

So I was in my senior year of high school a couple of years ago (oh god, am I that old already? ) and I had a friend named Riley who also hung out with a dude named Jameson. They both liked Lady Gaga, or at least her music or something. I seem to remember Jameson dancing to Poker Face with Riley singing it or some such nonsense. Anyway, I, being the hard-headed advocate for toughness and not-popularness and also heavy metal, promptly told them they were completely insane for actually enjoying such crap-on-a-stick. They disagreed with me and continued rockin' out to Gaga and Ke$ha during lunch hour in the hall near Checketts' classroom. I continued reading Harry Potter and compulsively hating everything popular, not-tough, and stereotypically feminine.

A few months after graduation, I looked at my iPod and saw a Lady Gaga song on it. I was all like "WTF man, I HATE this song" but then I remembered "CRAP IN A HAT, I PUT IT ON HERE" and then I thought "oh what the eff, one more round of Bad Romance couldn't hurt, right?"

Two weeks after that, I had five more Gaga songs and had updated my Facebook status with the chorus of Poker Face.

A week after that, I had an entire playlist devoted to Lady Gaga.

Two months ago, I admitted to myself that I actually like her as a person and not just for her music.

In light of this tumultuous tale of twists and turns and terrible lip-syncing, I would like to share the following.

Now, I have no idea why my story related to the vid for any reason whatsoever besides the fact that both have to do with Lady Gaga, but WHATEVER GUYS, NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR ELBOW.

Goodbye.
