I saw the most hilarious clip. A flighty gal walks into a nearly silent library and approaches the information desk. The woman behind the desk is clearly a nerdy booklover with the requisite reading glasses hanging around her neck. She greets the gal with in an inside voice asks if she can be of some help. The visitor says, “I’d like to order french fries, a burger, and a milkshake.” The dumbfounded librarian laughs and scolds her in a whispery yell, “This is a LIBRARY!” So the embarrassed woman looks both ways and then leans over and whispers, “I’d like to order french fries, a burger, and a milkshake.” Ha! Sometimes you just need to laugh out loud!
Sometimes it’s hard to know when the joke is on us. Other times it can be crushing to know that we ARE the joke. Oy. Check out this Dad who realized after a beat that his youngest was having a little chuckle at his expense. Smart kids can be so mean!
Getting over the embarrassment for that Dad, check out the weirdos who thunk up this crazy set of kicks. These Denny’s sponsored hightops contain actual syrup. I’m sorry. What??? Can you tell me one reason why having a sticky, bug-attractive substance in your shoes sloshing around while you walk can be considered a good thing? Shaking my head.
So we move onto the more practical use of food in a wearable. Check out this pickled genius who thought that sharable sours were a grand idea. But unless you own a meat locker, where are you storing this bad boy??
More often than not, we are disappointed when our expectations don’t match the reality of a particular situation. I try so hard to under expect with the hope that I may be surprised… but in a good way for a change. The next photo is just so true. I’m sure we can all relate to a pain au chocolate not having nearly enough chocolate. And I love the new title offered in the commentary! Hilarious and perfect. See what I mean…
Kids can be so real and so funny when they just blurt out the way it is. This toddler captured my heart with her naive misunderstanding of privacy. This should set the example of managing your expectations as a parent, right?!
When I’m frustrated I always use the expression, “I can’t even.” I love that those three words convey such emotion. Like you can’t even finish the sentence the subject is so dramatic! It’s a total mood. And I have a friend who counters with, “I can’t with her.” So to listen to our conversation it’s so few words of banter but so much anger is conveyed in a funny way. I can’t even. And this below is probably the best few reasons all women get into a mood…
