Along with having normal (boring) friends (who are lovely people, just not quirky) i have the other sort of friends - those who come out with very strange things in their time. So i thought i\'d share some with you.

Once when sitting chatting in my friends car, she suddenly blurted out \"Oh my god, there\'s something cold & wet between my legs!!! Oh - its ok,its a can of Red Bull\"

I couldn\'t do anything else but look at her in absolute awe and laugh histerically!

"I use billion-dollar satellites to find Tupperware in the woods. What's your hobby?"

- the "big teal chicken" guy. Either he was joking, or he's actually delusional.

Lee: "So, I had this dream that I was at a Chinese restaurant and Pikachu was on the menu..."
Jess: "But Pikachu is Japanese!"
Lee: "I thought Pikachu was Japanese...."

-I was over my friend, Jess's house watching her play "Silent Hill 2". Her friend, Lee, was over as well and she got bored and called Jess's and her other friend, Kim, and this popped up in the conversation.-

Was browsing used CDs with my teen-aged nephews at the Book Nook in Atlanta yesterday afternoon when we overheard a young woman beg into her mobile,
"Please don't get arrested for breaking into Mariah Carey's condo."
We all three swear this was a legitimate concern... so keep checking the news, just in case, and this raises the question, "Would she mind if her friend broke in, but *didn't* get arrested?"

"I swear to God! People were throwing *bags* of money at these midget strippers!"

-- some very drunk, obnoxious, loud guy at Shakespeare pub.

"Sorry, honey. Can't make our date tonight. The water turned me on."

A guy in the next aisle (admittedly the beverage aisle) at the grocery store.

seen: 3 miniature goats grazing along the interstate in North Carolina.

This was very odd to me because there weren't any houses or farms nearby and the interstate was lined with those huge walls of rock. They were about 10 ft out from the road.

seen: a sign in front of Riverview Hospital "Jan.1.2006. We are now a smoke-free campus!"

you must bear in mind that this is a hospital and it is most certianly NOT a new one.

"Stop licking my brain!"

--a little boy (four years old, maybe, or five) shouting/sobbing at his mom in the Olive Garden in Grand Junction, CO. His mother seemed to be unperturbed by the outburst.

I'm posting this not just because it's strange, and funny, but so that I can make a comment on Olive Garden. "When you're here, you're family" the commercials say. When's the last time Grandma charged you $12 to eat underdone breadsticks and overcooked noodles? Sheesh. It's just like the Awesome Apple Pies we sell at Wal-Mart, that claim right on the packaging that they're just like Grandma's. Sure, if Grandma was a lousy cook and did her shopping at Wal-Mart, they're probably pretty close.

Also wanted to post a reminder for myself that March 10 is inappropriate link day. Sure, it's three months away, but it's never too early to start preparing.

[edit] *throws up hands in defeat* Okay, IP, I get the hint, I won't bother posting anymore. Christ on a stick. Finally get some posts on the site, and they all get buried under page after page of old stuff. Normally, I don't mind the site amusing itself kicking out old stuff, it's fun to look back and see the classics. But making it impossible for people to find the new stuff is not cool. Alright, so nobody is missing much on my posts, but other people's stuff got buried, too.
