Now, granted, the ad really just pokes fun at this idea with a robed Hugh Hefner having a drink with a suited Hugh Hefner. They talked about love in a very dry, sarcastic sense - in a way only Hugh Hefner can discuss love, but still, it's a good commercial. Entertaining. However, like they mentioned, it does pose a good question.
Would you have drinks with you?
I asked this of my family once the commercial finished. Initially, they laughed at me. My brother's girlfriend was like "absolutely! I'm fun!" and my brother said, "Who wouldn't wanna have drinks with me?" But that's not what they're asking! They're not asking if people want to have drinks with you, because of course they would! Everyone has something to offer, so of course there are people that want to have drinks with you. But would you be ready to face yourself and chill with yourself over drinks? Honestly? For me? I don't know. I don't think I'm a terrible person or the most hysterical, but I don't know how I would react to talking with another me. I'd love to objectively see my own mannerisms, but having drinks with someone who thinks and acts exactly the same? I don't know. Again, I don't think that speaks negatively towards me or who I am, but that's a lot of Stephanie at one table!
Who knows, maybe someday I'll meet some twin I unknowingly have currently roaming the earth. It could be fun. It could be weird. It would definitely be worth blogging about though! I might finally come to see my infamous "story faces" - the ones my friends say I make while telling stories that always make them laugh. Who knows. But, really, what would you do?
how would you describe yourself if you don't know if you can stand yourself?
ReplyDeleteHaha. I don't think I said I couldn't "stand" myself. That's a pretty intense word. I think I have some really great qualities, but, like everyone should, have some areas I could work on. I just think it would be weird to meet myself. An objective view, but weird.
