Dealbreakers

There are a few things in life that really define who you are as an individual. The guy who sells ThePerryTrain her tuna sandwiches thinks that mayo is a deal breaker. Some consider condoms a deal breaker, others prefer the great cat vs. dog debate, then there is farting in bed. But Irving, well, they have their own deal breakers:

Say what you will about the six pillars of character (trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship), but nothing explains who you are like shoes and music. Well, I have to tell you that recently Barack Obama revealed that he prefers The Stones to The Beatles. No friggin’ way man!

What’s more American than the Beatles? I mean, besides the fact that they’re British, but still. Obama just stepped into some dangerous territory here. As far as I’m concerned he may as well have just said he hates apple pie.

Maybe it was the most patriotic answer he could give based on the fact that if you count Chicago-born Daryl Jones (who technically isn’t a member but took over bass duties from Wyman in ’94), then I guess The Stones are more American than The Beatles. But, according to the RIAA The Beatles have sold more albums in the USA than any other band. Americans love the Beatles.

I don’t know what type of relationship Irving had with Barack or if they’re gonna have to break up with Obama but I’m certainly going to need a little time to think things over. I just kinda feel like that sort of info should come out on a first date. OK, B.O. I think I can get over this, but you just better not like Bathing Apes. All I’m sayin…
