what matters

my officemate was telling some other officemate that my crushes are ugly.

me:  'huh?!  are they ugly???'

the reply was, 'yesss!!!'

me:  'no, they're not!'

officemate, emphatic:  'they are ugly!'

me:  'hmmm... maybe to you but to my heart they're good-looking...'

and that is what matters...
