Here's looking @ you!

This post will only make sense if you're "with it", technically speaking. In particular, you facebook fiends....

Question... why do people put "@" in front of a persons name to whom they're addressing? For instance, on a Facebook post, several friends leave me a comment, and then I want to reply to one of those comments, so I begin my comment by addressing that person by name so everyone knows who I'm replying to. But I've noticed in these replies people don't just put the persons name, but feel the need to put an @ sign in front of it; like @Nate. Is that the new coolguy thing to do these days you crazy, hip kids? Cause as far as I know, you don't need an @ sign to clarify who the heck you're addressing. That's what their name is for. Which, by the way, you've already listed. I'm just sayin'...

Aaachoooooooooooooo!!!

With the swine flu fears running ramped, there have been all kinds of ways to "prevent" the spread. We have a poster with this little guy on it at work. And I've heard from all over the place the "proper" way to cough or sneeze is to use your sleeve.
Tell me, how is this MORE sanitary? Anyone been doing this? At least if I sneeze in my hands I can immediately wash them, or at the very least follow up with some hand santizer I keep on hand. But your sleeve, assuming you're wearing long enough sleeves, your nastiness stays there all day. I'll be replacing hugs with air high fives. Not to mention, if you have skinny arms like mine, the bulk of your sneeze is absorbed by the sleeve, but there are plenty of leftovers flying around my little arm that couldn't contain the wrath. So how is this more sanitary?? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

WTF?!

What the Freak?? I'll give you guys all a moment to digest the photo you are viewing...



Any verps??



Well, if you haven't figured it out by now, that is an ENORMOUS fat boogie on a shirt. And of course there's a story....

So I have an interview, to which I have been desperately shopping for a pant suit. I FINALLY found one at JCPenney (a light grey suit) and see the perfect shirt to go under it... yes, the one pictured here. You see, I have the WORST luck in the world when it comes to shopping for clothes. The suit was hard to find because I'm two different sizes on top and bottom and suits are mostly sold as a set. This shirt (did I mention it's the perfect shirt?), was the last one in my size. Naturally. Because that's my luck. I bring it up to a cashier to see if they maybe have another one somewhere in my size, which they didn't, and seeing the question on her face as to why I would ask, I point at the green nasty on the shirt to which she says, "Ohh...um, what is that?" She tried to sound coy but i was in no mood to beat around the bush. "Uh, I think it's a bugar." I matter-of-factly stated. So she grabbed a papertowel and the thing flicked right off in one quick brush of the papertowel, clearly indicating it's crustiness. Then she offered 10% off....So, I bought it. Yes, bugar and all. Did I mention I was desperate? don't judge me.

Dexter

Recently my husband and I were in a bakery and the young girl working as the cashier says to my husband, "anyone ever tell you look just like the guy in Dexter?"
To which he retorted," so you're saying I look like a mass murderer?"

baahaahahahahahahahahaaa

Nyquil..."for a better tomorrow"


Anyone seen the commercials for Nyquil lately? I've posted a link for your convenience. Call me crazy, but isn't that crap supposed to treat your symptoms so "you can rest better"? The guy seen here is snoring up a storm with his mouth hangin open which tells me he his nose never cleared up. Why would I pay for a product that basically doesn't deliver on symptom relief? The commercial seems to state, Nyquil: will cause you to pass out only to wake up with a severe dry mouth and a sinus headache from congestion... and if you have a spouse, don't expect to sleep since they'll be kicking you all night from your snoring.
Word on the street is if you're looking to pass out, a couple beers will land you the same zzzz's and you may even have some fun doing it.
