Seriously....seriously?

Earlier this evening when I was driving home from the grocery store, I saw a man riding his bike in the dark. Now normally to me, this just means I need to be a little more cautious especially because he was dressed in black. I noticed that he kept swerving into my lane so I got a little closer to the middle of the road. I glanced over as I passed the guy and noticed that he was texting on his phone with both hands. First of all, I didn't realize that it required both hands to send a text message. Secondly, I think this takes distracted driving to a whole new level. Redonkulous. I would have taken a picture but I didn't have a camera with a flash on it with me. Sad day.

"It should be something... wonderfully random"

Because that's definitely the best place to put your helmet when you're on your motorcycle


Is there a point to have this be pink when all it does is carry stuff through tubes at the bank?



Limited edition. Is that just a fancy way of saying that there's an expiration date?



Because I know that I need 2 license plates on the back of my car just to make sure that people really know where I'm from



I'm glad I trust my car to this 'buisess'



I don't know if I want to try this juice, it sounds dangerous



Last time I checked, it is NOT a good marketing choice to arrange your boots like the bodies of so many dead people. Shame Wal-Mart, shame.


Do you think we eat out enough at work?


And last but not least, I'm a little offended that "chances are low that someone has this combination of names."



I hope you enjoyed this "wonderfully random" post

"I love you a bag of Swedish Fish"

As some of you may or may not know, I love movies (As evidenced by many of my blog titles being movie quotes). I also happen to have a roommate that shares in this love of movies and we frequently go on outings to purchase movies to add to our vast collection. One of the things we pride ourselves on is rarely buying movies at full price. I'm talking there are maybe three times in a year that we purchase any movie at full price and those usually have some sort of extenuating circumstance attached to them. So, while we were browsing the movies at a store earlier this evening, we arrived at the whole, "I like this movie, but I don't like it __ dollars worth." This frequently comes up when we have discussions about whether or not to buy movies. Granted, we usually end up buying more than we planned and we faithfully browse online ads to see who has the best deal on new releases but only if we like it __ dollars worth. Example: We were checking out and my roommate had picked up a 5 dollar movie but when it was rung up, it showed that it was 9 dollars. My roommate asked them to check the price. As the lady got on the phone to check with the department, I asked my roommate "Don't you still want it if it's 9 bucks?" and she replied "No, I like it, but I don't like it 9 bucks worth." We ended up getting it for 5 bucks but it made me wonder, do you ever have conversations with yourself or your shopping companions that involve "I like it, but I don't like it __ dollars worth?" Share.
