Easy to relate to friend's list of observations

Tuesday, July 26, 2011

I received the following from a friend.

Sorry to say, I can relate to most of them.

Adult Friends

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

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

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. (My favorite pastime.)

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How in the world are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary? (I think so.)

7. MapQuest really needs to start their directions on No. five. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. (I'm not so sure.)

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

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. (That's for sure.)

10. Bad decisions make good stories. (I will have to give that some thought.)

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day. (Does this apply to us old folks at home, too?)

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection ... again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word, and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my 10-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.

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

15. I think the freezer deserves a light, as well.

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

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

18. How many times is it appropriate to say "what" before you just nod and smile, because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said? (This sure is a problem around our house.)

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

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

21. Even under ideal conditions, people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone and pinning the tail on the donkey, but I'd bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from three feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed first time, every time. (You got that right.)

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

23. The first testicular guard, the "cup," was used in hockey in 1874, and their first helmet was used in 1974.

That means it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important.
