A friend of mine always jokes that girls misuse the word "fun".
Whenever he hears a girl say something like, "Isn't this dress so fun?" or "I found the most fun shoes!", he is baffled. He always wonders: how is the dress fun? What does it do to make it fun? Tell jokes? Dance?
Last week, when Erin came to work in a fabulous vintage silk dress and Billi immediately said, "Erin, that's such a fun dress!" I couldn't help but laugh.
As a female, I clearly agreed that the dress was exceptionally fun. But since the dress didn't change colors with her mood or repel bad guys, I'm not sure most men would agree.
