1. Why do vending machines spit dollar bills back at you when they're not crisp enough? I feel like the vending machine is judging me and it's not fair. I'm just happy to have a dollar, but then the vending machine makes me feel inferior because it determines that my bill is subpar. Why? It the carries the same value as all the rest. If someone wants to give me a dollar, I'll take it no matter what shape it is in. Why must vending machines be so snobby?
2. Why does my shower curtain liner insist upon hogging the shower? Today, I caught myself actually standing in the back of my shower, balancing precariously in a space roughly the size of a Post-It, barely in the flow of water, all because the liner was taking up probably 75% of the space in the shower. Translation: I was losing a fight to a shower curtain. At this realization, I grew infuriated and I kicked it back to the side. Gotta show it who's boss. This happens almost every other morning. I know the there is some law of physics coming into play that we probably learned about in Slamb's class (too bad I was busy making fun of her instead of paying attention). Memo to shower curtain liner: I'm aware that the hot water is nice and all, but seriously. Cling to the side of the tub like your weighted hem led me to believe you would do. Or just stand still and be beautiful and perfect, like your monogrammed counterpart.

Haha. Remember what's his name.... Justin ..? The comedian at CWE that did the joke about the shower curtain. How do they get so dirty?
ReplyDeleteI don't remember that joke but I do remember "nothing can escape the afghan!" And "your butt just gobbled up a letter!"
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure it's Bernoulli's principle....I think...if it's even spelled right. :)
ReplyDeleteumm, okay mrs. freakishly smart. would you have known that if you weren't a teacher?
ReplyDeleteBernoulli's Law just says that things will move to areas of least pressure. It's why planes fly. Also, Justin McKinney is amazing. "I think it says juicy but your ass gobbled up a letter."
ReplyDeletei myself have often wondered at the mysterious breeze that seems to send the shower curtain liner gusting into the already limited space inside the shower. also, wes, yes, of course, we're all impressed that you know what bernoulli's principle is.
ReplyDeleteIt's the one thing I remember from the physics class I took at AU, that I ended up not needing when I changed my major. I know, I know...you're totally impressed. Just don't ask me anything else remotely related to physics...I am sure to embarrass myself.
