Randomness from Wednesday and Thursday...
- Insider Tip: If you ask people "Do you want to hear a funny story?" they will never decline. This might be useful in delivering bad news, breaking up, firings, or even actual jokes. 🤓
- Hey cool dudes, clearing your nasal passages, and spitting over a garbage can indoors (even in a public place,) is well beneath you. If it isn't, try harder. I hate being made to feel like someone's repressed maiden aunt. 🙄
- I just saw an undergrad male with a Top Knot Bun literally sticking from the top of his head. He was telling a young lady "I am literally a perfectionist!" 🙄
- Students who take public transportation here are given specific bus passes for the nearest routes two and from their respective homes. This is to prevent them from skipping school and "riding the rails" all day.
Earlier a student boarded my bus with the wrong routed pass. He was belligerent and refused to get off of the bus when politely told by the driver. The kid just stood there shouting "I ain't gettin' off," as if it made him correct; while holding up the other passengers. The driver turned off the engine, and I imagine was about to summon the police, which I also imagine was policy.
A random stranger came forward, and asked if she could pay for the kid. She did, and the kid thanked her, but went to the back of the bus still cursing about being right.
My first thought was that, this woman was much kinder than myself. Actually, she wasn't, because the kid learned nothing.
- If I were a much lower life-form, I might offer #metoo re-branding consultations, but you can't smack or vomit on clients.
Seriously, are power and sexual misconduct cousins?
- The sin isn't in not knowing.
The sin is in not Googling.
- A child asked me earlier "If people drink the blood at church, then why are they afraid of vampires?" Other than "That's brilliant," I didn't have an answer.
- Tomorrow's Friday...
