Poetic Justice

[TeamAllison]

Today I was minding my own business, listening to the local soft-rock/pop radio station 97.3 (Kay Oh I Seeeeeeeeeee) and balancing chemical reactions for some homework. As usual, an hourly contest is announced giving away free concert tickets in the local area. Today's contest? Jason Mraz tickets at Berkeley's own Greek Theater. I'm not the biggest Jason Mraz fan, but I've received an ungodly amount of his music over the past year, thanks to my ex-boyfriend, a ridiculous Mraz fanboy in his own right. Our relationship did not end well.

Anyway, as usual I text the radio station hotline with the five-digit contest code, awaiting my usual response of "Sorry, the contest is over. Try again tomorrow!" or "You aren't the winner, but the contest isn't over yet! Keep texting KOIC for your chance to win!" three seconds later. My phone buzzes and I open it half-heartedly. "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU JUST WON TWO TICKETS TO SEE JASON MRAZ AT THE GREEK THEATER! CALL 1-800 XXX-XXXX TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE!" I stare at it, baffled for a moment, as if I received the text in Portuguese. After a minute, a slow grin spreads on my face.

"Hey Allie, what's up?"
"Holy fucking shit, (insert name here), you aren't gonna believe this. I was listening to KOIC-"
"Hahaha, why?"
"Because I like listening to "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" ten times a day? Actually, for my chance to win Jason Mraz tickets at the Greek Theater. Which I did...win, I mean."
"...What? Are you serious?"
"Yeah, two tickets. I'm seriously in shock right now. I never win these things!"
"Oh my God, dude that's amazing! You're lying!"
"Nope!"
"I'm so fucking stoked! When is it? I gotta clear my schedule up for work and I can drive since parking-"
"Actually, (insert name here), I was gonna take Randall. She's a giant Jason Mraz fan, thanks to you."

(author's note: Randall is my older sister (yes, Randall). My ex didn't like her much.)

"....."
"Hey, I gotta go call this radio station and get my tickets. I'm so excited! I think they're really good seats too! I'll see you on campus tomorrow?"
"...."

I am a smug bastard.

Anyway, the point of this anecdote is not just for me to be a smug bastard, but to open up discussion for your own stories of when you've ever experienced some form of poetic justice.

lololJasonMraz

i have no idea why i just read all of that. hahaha, Randall. congrats though, for winning those tickets, lol.

speaking of weird stuff, i had the weirdest dream ever last night. i actually dreamt of some weird old man with a beard who had fake IDs of his 2 daughters (about 18 years) in his bag. and he showed me those IDs proudly, but instead of their faces there were close-up pictures of their pussies. why the bloody hell would i fucking dream such a crap. where are the siegmund freuds of ap?

[argg_xo]

Maybe you should google "Frank Garrido".

And all that dream symbolism is full of shit. Dreams are just your mind interpreting the days events and what you were thinking of lately. I had a dream that I was playing a gig with Boxcar Racer and all of our instruments were made of cardboard. I remember that day I put my dog in a shoebox and pushed him around and made racing noises while listening to Blink 182. It makes sense.

i googled it and didn't find anything useful. what was i supposed to find?

hahah, that sounds fun. so what have i been thinking then? i was watching porn that day, yeah i admit it. oh now that i think about it, i've seen a movie lately where someone manipulated an ID and put another picture in it. i feel like a total jerk for combining those two things in a dream, omg.

Because Freud did a shit ton of coke?

[billyboatkid]

I've never had much go right for me. So nothing yet. Hopefully soon though, hopefully soon.

[anamericangod]

No, because her ex boyfriend did.

[bladerdude360]

No, because her ex boyfriend did.
Well that makes sense too.

[TeamAllison]

No, because her ex boyfriend did.

You're thinking of the wrong ex-boyfriend. I guess Slayer goes better with coke than John Mayer acoustic sessions.

I knew I was doing something wrong.

I think you just summed up my 19 years of existence in a sentence.

[Roboman]

That doesn't really sound like "poetic justice" to me, more like you just being an asshole. Don't take it as an insult though, I enjoyed the story.

[phil19]

my ex gf loved jason mraz which caused me to hate him

[Smash Adams]

I like Jason Mraz, The Killers, Maroon 5, Counting Crows, The Fray, One Republic etc.
Why am I not rolling in the pussy?

Not at all. I'm a fucking pushover in bad relationships, so I revel in being able to be an asshole once in a while and NOT fucking it up.

No clue. Try taking it a step further and writing a three-chord acoustic version of one of their songs, complete with whispery vocals and a muted-strum bridge. Sing it to your paramour and you should be bombarded by platoons of vagina in no time. It would also help if you wore an ugly fedora and grew some stubble.

Edit: Kinda like THIS guy:

It will do.

[God damner]

I'd laugh if this chick was just a total bitch and this was gods way of kicking that guy in the nuts, because that seems more likely.

Poetic justice would be if you would have taken him to the concert and Mraz had thrown up in his face or something.

This is more like "Nyah, nyah, boo boo, I have something you don't."

But Goddamn if you still aren't a cute little sass kitten.

You know, I never thought a smiley could creep me out as outrageously much as that one did just now.

Shit, you may as well ask me to find the fountain of youth while you're at it.
