overheard

eavesdropping for the technologically savvy

Monday, September 25, 2006

Well, now that I've completed the two-second logon process... I don't remember what I was going to post about. Hmm.

Kristen sent me a great Overheard, that could only be from one place... TEXAS!

This one comes direct from one of my instructors, who (sadly enough) lives in the same city I do. Please don't judge me based on what he says! Ready? Here goes:


"You know, it's like John Wayne toilet paper. It's rough, tough, and doesn't take crap off nobody!"

Oooooooooooh boy.


I did sit in the doctor's waiting room the other day. (By the way... if your inhaler expired 3.5 years ago, it probably won't work very well. Mine didn't!) And there are always lots of lovely people there. Like the woman talking on her cell phone VERY LOUDLY - the only one talking in the whole room - about the rampant infection she had in her hand after jabbing it with cat's claw (the native desert plant). Save it for the doctor, lady! Ew.

    That lady had a baaaad case of TMItis.

    What IS it with some people? Those are the same people who go on about their corns, their bunions, their spastic colon (shudders).

    John Wayne toilet paper . . . I bet you could sell that, though you'd probably be sent a C & D by lawyers representing his estate (he is dead, isn't he? See how not up-to-speed on Republican pop culture I am?)

    *EDIT*
    I tried posting this comment with the word "shudder" in brackets, but I was informed that my "HTML cannot be accepted. Tag is not allowed:" I can't even re-post the tag, because THAT will not be allowed.

    I feel censored.

    Um, you know what scares me? I have HEARD my husband say that John Wayne toilet paper thing before when we were over at his parents' house. Apparently they ALL say it quite a bit.

    *shakes head*

    In-laws.

    7/2:
    Don't use pointy brackets because that's html code, use parentheses, square brackets, or cury brackets instead.
