    Thoughts we have always thought
    -I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.


    -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.


    -Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.


    -I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter?


    -Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning 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.


    -That's enough, Nickelback.


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


    -Is it just me, or are 80% of the people in the "people you may know" feature on Facebook people that I do know, but I deliberately choose not to be friends with?


    -Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but 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. Today's kids are soft.


    -There is a great need for sarcasm font.


    -Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the f was going on when I first saw it.


    -I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the only one who really, really gets it.


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


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


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


    -The only time I look forward to a red light is when Im trying to finish a text.


    - A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it.


    - Was learning cursive really necessary?


    - Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say".


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


    - Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying.


    - My brother's Municipal League baseball team is named the Stepdads. Seeing as none of the guys on the team are actual stepdads, I inquired about the name. He explained, "Cuz we beat you, and you hate us." Classy, bro.


    - Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".


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


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


    - Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies"


    -What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?


    - While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it... thanks Mario Kart.


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


    - Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.


    - I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water.


    -Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.


    - I would like to officially coin the phrase 'catching the swine flu' to be used as a way to make fun of a friend for hooking up with an overweight woman. Example: "Dave caught the swine flu last night."


    -I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.


    - Bad decisions make good stories


    -Whenever I'm Facebook stalking someone and I find out that their profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures? Don't mind if I do!


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


    -If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would probably just be completely invisible.


    -Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a
    problem...


    -You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day.


    -Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection.


    -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.


    -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.


    - "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever.


    -I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?'


    -I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Dammit!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?


    - I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.


    -When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning something she hasn't already told me but that I have learned from some light internet stalking.


    -I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.


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


    - As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists.


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


    -It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.


    -I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.


    -Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it.


    -Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, hitting the G-spot, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but Id bet my a$$ everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time...


    -My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the hell do I respond to that?


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


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


    -I think the freezer deserves a light as well.


    -I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay.


    -The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimated that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fat bastard before dinner.

    Wow, someone actually took the time to read it. I couldn't help but to post it. There are so many things that I know people do on here and it is so true.

    Phew! Took me some time to completely read all that :p! Good ones! :)

    Loved the Mario Kart one, the ninja one, the TV remote control, the snooze button,. haaaa! :p and more!

    Blowing in the cartridge apparently humidifies the contacts and worsens the game! :eek: I learned that way too late with my first cartridge T.T Lol
  • Oct 5, 2009, 11:02 AM
    adam_89

    I always wonder about the cop being behind someone and knowing they are going to go the exact speedlimit. You know that has to piss them off a little bit.

    I think I am the guy getting the takeout.

    Oh, and the thing with the phone always irritates me. I hate when you miss a call and then call back and they don't answer. You just keep thinking, how in the hell do they not answer their phone when they just called me.
  • Oct 5, 2009, 11:05 AM
    adam_89
    Oh and the obituaries thing was always a thought of mine, and I would be very intrigued to find out what happened if you did hire 2 private investigators to follow each other.
  • Oct 5, 2009, 11:07 AM
    Unknown008

    I did that today :eek: The phone I mean. It wasn't on purpose.

    My friend called me, I replied, OK the school bus was about to come. Three minutes later, I look at my phone, and there's a miss call. When I walk, I don't feel my phone vibrating in my pocket. I called back, the bus had already left for school without me. I took the first public bus, got to the station where it usually stops for a while and caught it when it was about to leave.

    Phew, that was not the usual driver... that one took 2 minutes less than the other. Otherwise, I wouldn't have missed it earlier. I hate when they switch drivers!!

    Those were GREAT!! :D
    I laughed out loud on most, like map quest, a missed phone call.

    You mentioned obituaries? I missed it and went back and scanned and still missed it:confused:
  • Oct 5, 2009, 12:31 PM

    - Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

    There you go Just Dahlia. Glad you liked them. A lot of them made me laugh out loud too

    A Frozen bulb would explode when heated.

    Side by side fridges have light bulbs in freezer compartments and do not blow up. Same is true for bottom freezer units with a fridge on top.

    Top freezer units usually don't have a lightbulb as it takes a lot longer to recover the cold temperature than bottom or side units.

    Thank you adams for your humour. Enjoyed them.
    Well, finding a thread related with thought, I thought to put my thought as well.

    I thought a thought.But the thought I thought wasn't the thought I thought I thought. If the thought I thought I thought had been the thought I thought, I wouldn't have thought so much. :P

    That one made me laugh. Could you imagine if you were in that position that guy was in with his son? Lmao

    If the ninja uses his/her superhuman powers of flexibility, speed and strength to avoid the car, did you run over him? :confused:

    By the way, can we develop a sarcasm font that actually drips sarcasm?

    I love this.
    This is my fav one, "Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the f was going on when I first saw it." Seriously, I've watched a movie a time or two that I saw when I was younger and said out loud, "What the hell. I had no idea!"

    Speaking of the sarcasm font...


    At his meeting with Britains Queen Elizabeth , Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd turned to the Queen and said:

    As I'm the Prime Minister, I'm thinking of changing how my great country is referred to, and I'm thinking that it should be a Kingdom."

    The Queen replied, "I'm sorry Mr. Rudd, but to be a Kingdom, you have to have a King in charge - and you're not a King."

    Rudd thought a while and then said: "How about a Principality then?"

    To which the Queen replied, "Again, to be a Principality you have to be a Prince - and you're not a Prince, Mr. Rudd."

    Rudd thought long and hard and came up with "How about an Empire then?"

    The Queen, getting a little annoyed by now, replied : "Sorry again, Mr. Rudd, but to be an Empire you must have an Emperor in charge - and you are not an Emperor."

    Before Rudd could utter another word, The Queen said: "I think you're doing quite nicely as a Country."

    First, how did I miss this thread? Am I not on the mailing list anymore?

    Second, M, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. :)

    Third, my favorite, Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies"

    That was me today. Who says S as in sphincter? :(
