GOOD FOR A LAUGH OR TWO!


Nosing around on blogs are my idea of fun. The list below seems to be making its way around blog-land. For my own blog I picked out my favorite 20 and also substituted a few of my own words for some of the writer’s -- a generational thing, I think. I’m sure you’ll get a chuck or too also.

1. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.

2. Nothing is more distressing than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just doing a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.

4. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.

7. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

8. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

9. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?

10. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent a dick from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers!

11. MapQuest really needs to start their directions at #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

12. Obituaries would be more interesting if they told you how the person died.

13. Is it just me or do high school girls get sluttier & sluttier every year?

14. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

15. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.

16. Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles...

17. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

18. I think that if, years down the road when I'm trying to have a kid, I find out that I'm sterile, most of my disappointment will stem from the fact that I was not aware of my condition in college.

19. It really irks me when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text.

20. I wonder if cops ever get ticked off at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit.
