A Completely Unrelated Series of Thoughts... Part 6

Moving on i spy a toaster oven!

And I spy something you can toast in the toaster oven!

No, not the Captain Morgan. Good Lord, you really do have a drinking problem.

Been told by my partner to sell my motorbike and to buy something much faster and sportier    Time to go Ducati hunting

We went to dinner with my grandma and Uncle tonight and had to wait like two and a half hours for a table to get some meh Italian food. So, dinner that should have taken an hour took four...

Wheeee

sometimes the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy reminds me of Family Guy with the unrelated tangents it goes off on. i love this one:

He picked up the letter Q {from a scrabble game} and hurled it into a distant privet bush where it hit a young rabbit. The rabbit hurtled off in terror and didn't stop till it was set upon and eaten by a fox which choked on one of its bones and died on the bank of a stream which subsequently washed it away.

During the following weeks Ford Prefect swallowed his pride and struck up a relationship with a girl who had been a personnel officer on Golgafrinchan, and he was terribly upset when she suddenly passed away as a result of drinking water from a pool that had been polluted by the body of a dead fox. The only moral it is possible to draw from this story is that one should never throw the letter Q into a privet bush, but unfortunately there are times when it is unavoidable.

Getting a cold when you have heart problems makes the cold 15x worse. Been sick for a few days and only eaten a poptart.

I prescribe large quantities of alcohol, on a unrelated note just been thinking how much I would love to torch the office I work at.

What's wrong with it? The wallpaper or the drapes?

[SirPsycho]

The stapler and the printer.

If that passage is anything to go off of, then the Hitchhiker's Guide series is probably not for me. Maybe I'm just dumb, or I'm not British enough, but I didn't find that passage particularly amusing.

I'm sorry for being such a big disappointment to you...

You would have had to have been there.

what nupoile said, maybe it's funnier in context because that's sort of what the book does, it says something and then goes off for a few paragraphs on a tangent about it before coming back to what it originally was talking about.

While we're sharing book quotes here's one of my favorites from Sir Terry Pratchett.

 “The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.”

Hope you start feeling better soon.

You should really be eating lots of nutritious food. Body needs good stuff to get good, and even more of it when it's under attack.

This last time I had the flu I ate like a fiend instead of laying in bed starving myself like I usually do. Got over it four days when in the past it's lasted for weeks.
