Ohhh. It's a sweet & salty one this week when we dive into nemeses (even if we're not 100% on how to pronounce it).
nemesis • \NEM-uh-siss\ • noun. 1 a : one that inflicts retribution or vengeance b : a formidable and usually victorious rival or opponent 2 a : an act or effect of retribution b : a source of harm or ruin : curse.
Katie reveals one of her former nemeses:
Like, not ACTUALLY, but you get it.
And Amitai reveals one of his nemeses:
Like, not ACTUALLY, but...you get it.
The Opposite of a Crush
We're still on the hunt for the right word to evoke a 1-way adversarial relationship. That thing where you are competitive with someone, but they may or may not know you exist. We welcome all your suggestions.
Also, your horny hosts have an important PSA this week:
It's Okay to Suck at Stuff
Sorry to shout. We mostly need to remind ourselves.
We Hope You Dance
Felt appropriate to borrow this phrase from Lee Ann Womack's sentimental 2000's ode as a tile for our chat about dance class. Katie shares about her positive experience with local company Formation Studio.
Formation Studio founder Sachie Maclean-Magbanua.
Horny Fors
This week Katie-Ellen is horny for everyone who has contributed to the Covid-19 vaccination efforts, in particular the local volunteers and healthcare pros at the site where Katie gratefully got vaxxed last week.
Amitai is horny for women's clothing. I mean, who doesn't like a clothes that fit properly. Cheers to anyone trying to break gender stuff that doesn't serve you.
