Noticement

Walking down the street with a ridiculously attractive friend of mine one day:

Friend: If you saw me on the street, would I turn your head? Would you notice me if you didnโ€™t already know me? Because Iโ€™d notice you. My head would be a-turninโ€™.

Me: โ€ฆ

Friend: I assume your silence means no, then? Awww. (Then she looked a bit sad.)

Me: How do I say this? You turn absolutely everyoneโ€™s head. Literally everyone notices you. We walk by a cemetery, and you hear bones creaking and tomb doors sliding open so the dead can get a peek. Youโ€™re very tall and have human thoroughbred genes and hair straight out of a shampoo commercial. So yes, I definitely wouldโ€™ve noticed you.

Her: Good! Because I only really care if the people I like notice me. I was worried there when you didnโ€™t say anything. Meanie!

Donโ€™t get me wrong, she fully knows sheโ€™s conventionally extremely attractive, but sheโ€™s just used to being noticed so she doesnโ€™t even notice the noticing anymore. Itโ€™s just her worldโ€™s background noise. I thought her reaction to my incredulity was pretty cute.
