Officially Old

I am now officially old. I had to parse every word of the title of this Boston Herald story. Not an MTV News headline, no. Boston FREAKING Herald.

The title of the news story:

Snoop peeps fingered in onstage de-blinging

The mind boggles with what my ancient imagination can construct from these simple words. I shudder to think of it. You should too.

My first thought was that it was an 'onstage de-bagging' and I'm thinking COOL! Hardly anyone gets debagged anymore, and onstage yet? Unheard of. G.G. Allin is dead, man. Wendy O. Williams is dead. True sailing is dead. Oh, wait, I'm quoting Jim Morrison again. And of course...he dead, Mistuh Kurtz.

However, I was wrong. No de-bagging took place.

Turns out, some guy climbed on stage during a concert and got knocked about by security - and now claims he was invited onstage and deliberately robbed. OK, then. Nothing at all like my what my fevered imagination had come up with.

I am very old now. But somebody should be getting de-bagged, dammit.

Eh?
