hihi

Two? Nope. You have FIVE, minimum.

You take the apple

You take the orange

You take both

You take nothing

You take something else

And this works EVERYWHERE. 

“Are you with us or with them?”

I’m with you!

I’m with them!

You both have good points!

You’re all insane!

I’m going with that other group over there!

“You need to vote Democrat or Republican!”

Democrat!

Republican!

I switch depending on the leader and the issues!

I don’t vote! 

I vote for a third-party!

“Are you Christian or Muslim??”  

I’m Christian

I’m Muslim

I think God is one and the same and follow good doctrines of both

I’m atheist

I’m Jewish

And it’s often more subtle

Like a salesperson handing you two products and pressuring you to buy one of them, making you forget that 

You don’t have to buy anything if you don’t want to

You can leave the store and buy something elsewhere

And sometimes it can be as important as

“Are you gay or are you straight?”

I’m gay

I’m straight

I’m both? So Bi?

I like no one, I’m ace. 

I’m anything else, really, this is a spectrum and I define my own orientation.

they decided maybe they would just go out that night instead, while i was at work, because there are more places open on saturdays than mondays. my friend said, “you dont really like going out anyway right? its okay if we go without you?”
