Re: Straingest thing you have ever seen
Aw, hey now... I remember in elementary school, we had a spelling test where you passed your paper and had it graded by another student. I had to grade the paper of one of the Talented And Gifted students (which, in sixth grade, after six years of calling me mildly retarded and even holding me back a year, they finally decided I wasn't mentally damaged and thought I should join too... Ha! Me not mentally damaged...), a kid that I can tell you was very intelligent, but spelling was not her thing. In fact, on this one test, she missed every single word. And this was a girl who we all, as a term of endearment, nicknamed Emily Egghead.
So from that standpoint, you will have to forgive me if I am not one for poking fun at someone for not being a spelling bee champion... and take that from someone who would potentially be.
Not upset, but that hit a button with me... brought back a flood of memories of the frienship I ruined with something I did as a kid.

My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Re: Straingest thing you have ever seen
Just remembered something exceedingly strange that I saw as a guest once:
I was strolling World Showcase at Epcot when I saw her. Four-inch heels, a "little black dress" that was shorter than most bathing suit cover-ups, hair done up high, and black fishnet hose. It's the sort of outfit that one might think no one would be foolish enough to wear to a theme park even once.
Yet this was clearly her second day in the park wearing this costume.
How could I tell? No, I only saw her the one time, but she must have been out and about a previous day wearing the same togs because her legs were pretty badly sunburned. However, the fishnet pattern on her flesh didn't quite match that in her hose, giving her legs something of a plaid aspect.
Having ignored that much, it probably shouldn't surprise me that she was also blissfully unaware of all the giggling guests in her wake.

Why did the people at gates let her in? Not that I wouldn't mind the view... if she was hot...Zazu wrote:Having ignored that much, it probably shouldn't surprise me that she was also blissfully unaware of all the giggling guests in her wake.
And don't worry, you didn't dregde up too bad a memory... we made amends later and then lost contact. I'm sure she's a bitter but successful attorney somewhere or something.

Re: Straingest thing you have ever seen
Be careful. Several years ago there was a co-ed here at the U of I who tended to dress that way all the time. She was a real looker too. But I kinda changed my opinion of her the day I saw her using the urinal in the mens room.Zazu wrote:Just remembered something exceedingly strange that I saw as a guest once:

Re: Straingest thing you have ever seen
As a kid I had a poster of a woman using the urinal in the men's room. However, I'm guessing that this one is way different than the example given

You realize that on the off chance you ever snap and start shooting people, they'll use this in the psych profile before the sentencing hearing? Just thinking ahead.Cranbiz wrote:As a kid I had a poster of a woman using the urinal in the men's room. ...
