WHY WE THINK THIS WAS REJECTED BY McSWEENEY’S

In A World Needing Titles


Well, everyone has their own way of saying it.
Can we just pick something?
Boyfriend / Girlfriend doesn’t get the message across.

Okay let’s just keep it simple. What if I call you…
The “”Hot” to my “Honey” or
The “Hip” to my “Hop” or
The “Penguin” to my “Pebble”

Maybe when we add a little spice I can switch things up with…
The “Bermuda” to my “Triangle” or…
The “Mount” to my “Everest” or…
The “Hot” to my “Sauce” 

These are good.
Yeah. 

Okay — I think this pretty much clarifies things now. 

If there is still confusion just remember that in a world needing titles — you’re my babe.
