Awesome. I know that guy. Used to work with him. He's overweight, but not grossly so. Still, he thinks it's hilarious. He's got an odd sense of humor to say the least.

I thought it was funny, especially given he was in line at McDonald's, I circled back around just for the pic! We smiled and waved, he seemed good-natured.

Driving back from my parents a couple of weekends ago I was East of DM on 80 and a car with by me with the license plate MRS BJS. Now if that is your husband and wife initials wouldn't it dawn on you that it says something completely different than what you think it says?

That is great!

I often wonder when everyone in the world lost their ability to pick out sarcasm. I understand it can be difficult when reading something, but if you are talking to a person it should be pretty clear they are not being serious. Right? RIGHT???

When and why did wearing these stupid looking flat bill hats become such a trend? They look ridiculously stupid.

Read this first time as "Too fat to nurse". Worked over five years in health care, and SIL is nurse, so maybe it was just me.

I have come to discover that whoever closes the cosmetic registers are most of the time mathematically competent, but can't read.

Iowa drivers do not know how to use turn signals. Ask anyone from out of state who has driven in Iowa for a few days.

Why do leg cramps happen in the middle of the night? I woke up at 1am and my left calf locked up. My calf still aches.

This happens often to me too.

I also don't get wearing black socks. I've probably worn them a couple times in my life, but it's only been for a dress nice type event.

While teaching my daughters how to drive, one of the first things I told them was to NEVER trust someone's blinker. I picked my youngest up from her driving lessons, she told me her instructor said the exact same thing.

Around Christmastime, I probably creeped out a neighbor.

There was a Christmas bow on the floor of our garage, so I decided to put it on a car. There was a lovely Dodge Charger next to me, so they got the bow. The next day, the bow had been cruelly thrown to the ground. So I placed it back on the Dodge Charger. The third day, no bow :sad: I wonder about the bow's fate and the neighbor's thoughts about who was creepily putting said bow on their car.

It's like that IKEA commercial, where they leave the old lamp out in the rain for trash. I feel the bow had a similar experience. Imagine, one day, it's the toast of the town, The big decoration for Christmas. Then, too soon, it's time is over and it's uncaringly thrown to the ground. Sad an alone, it finds a friend in you, who once again, lifts it and places it on a car, to bring happiness to all. Soon though, it realizes this isn't the case, as someone has thrown it upon the ground, to suffer once again. Then boom, you come along as the savior, bringing one final shot at life, happiness back to the bow, by placing it on the car. You know though, the whole time that bow was thinking, "Please, please don't put me back on the Dodge Charger, it's owner was such a harsh, mean uncaring, unChristian, Christmas hater, please, anywhere but the Dodge." Alas, we can only hope that the man with the Dodge found a new, better home for the bow, but it's probably buried now, in a pile of trash. Hoping one day someone will find it.

You're probably lucky you don't have George Zimmerman for a neighbor. :wideeyed:

Why is it that whenever I hand my phone to someone to show them something, they put their fingers on the screen & change whatever was on it?!
