i keep hearing myself say to myself, as if to someone [everyone] else, "dude, you're harshing my mellow."
wtf? i've never said such a thing in all my life
[on the other hand, i'm well-acquainted with "wtf?", in life and in acronymic interweb lingo. deplorable speech patternings or irresistible absorption into the centrifugal body? it must be pms. i felt so soapy-eyed and weepy in the shower this afternoon, thinking about It's a Wonderful (this plot synopsis is empty) Life. It's not even December! WTF!]

You make
me laugh.
I find myself wanting to think this is a response to my earlier question. In any case its the most entertaining blog entry I've read in a long time. I can so relate. Thank you.
I just noticed the other night that phrase appears in Nicoloff's *Punks* (Harshing my mellow, or a version thereof.)
It bonked me on the head cos Julian B. used it in this poetics statement she wrote like three hundred years ago (in internet time that is), and which I was obsessed with. The statement includes stuff about cardigans AND bruce lee, and possibly eyeglasses too, although that might be a later deal. Anyways, her sentence is something like "Characters'll invade, demanding center stage, harshing my most personal mellow." I couldn't get it out of my head for years.
Something about it ("harshing / mellow?) seems stuck in print?
Like, I 'say' WHAT THE FUCK all the time (out loud, with my 'voice') but never WTF. Do people 'say' WTF? Or harshing my mellow? I wonder?
Good morning! I kiss you!
well that clears up where it came from.
I say WTF all the time. I admit it. WTF?
PS-and BTW. and OMG.
i used to say "tripping my vibe"...but never harshing my mellow...oh, & groovy & right on were regular fixtures, too...
& brandon...if i ever notice you *saying* "OMG", i just might have to laugh a bit...
TMV! now that i like
it was always prefaced with "dude"...you're from southern california, so i know you can imagine the inflections...
