Randomness
I am feeling a little uninspired these days so coming up with something clever to write about has left me with just compiling random thoughts.
Why do couples use the Whitney Houston (or Dolly Parton) song "I Will Always Love You" as their wedding song or loving dedication? It's a total break up song and sad as sh!t, Y'all. I once had a boyfriend in high school use it as the lead song on a mixtape. At first, I thought I was getting dumped, then I thought it was slightly sweet, then I dumped him for being a moron. Try listening to lyrics before making a dedication, it may save you from making an a$$ out of yourself.
It is ASK not AXE. As in, you ask a question.
If you want me to be your friend, it is probably best to not talk trash about me to my other friends or family. And you wonder why you don't get invited over for dinner.
It reads "No pennies, PLEASE" at tollbooths. It doesn't mean that they don't take pennies, they just prefer not to. You can throw 100 of them in there if you want.
Why do people feel it is ok to leave shopping carts in the middle of a parking lot? Does it take that much of an effort to put it away or in the appropriate receptacle? This is truly one of the most jackass things to do, next to inappropriately parking in handicap spaces.
I never felt unconnected growing up. I spoke to my friends on the phone. I checked voicemails on an answering machine from a pay phone. I waited for dial-up to connect to check emails once a week. It was all cool. But now, if I lose my iPhone for more than 30 seconds, I have a complete panic attack and feel as if I missed something.
I truly like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but the same people that were jerks to you in grade school are going to be jerks to you as an adult.
The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently, I will never be ending a work email with the phrase 'Regards' again. Autocorrect always thinks I mean to type "duck" but it didn't pick up on my embarrassing closing.
Do you remember when you were a kid playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You'd take the cartridge out, blow in it, and that would magically fix the problem. How did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no Internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out – just like we figured out how to copy cassette tapes and use maps to get places instead of GPS.
If you are a Vegan, you probably should not have leather seats in your car and a $6000+ buffalo hide custom saddle. Juss sayin'.
I just like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but the same people that were jerks to you in grade school are going to be jerks to you as an adult. Did I just say that twice? It's because I really care about what I think.
