How much attention do you pay to what people wear around you? Do you look to see what everyone is wearing all the time? Do you only notice the flashy ties, bright dresses, or notable tops? Do you EVEN notice the flashy ties, bright dresses, or notable tops? I know I barely can keep track of what I’ve worn for more than 2 weeks, and I couldn’t tell you what anyone wore at the end of the day. There was 1 guy that had a couple shirts with some notable stains and tears, so when I saw those with regularity, I knew it, but that’s about it.
Don’t treat it like one. Don’t wish me a happy Friday unless you’re willing to embark in wishing everyone a happy Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday just as much. Notice I didn’t say Monday, because there’s probably some bright eyed and bushy tailed jerk out there that might actually think that sounds like a great idea. I’d fear legal ramifications as an accessory to murder if I encouraged someone to say “HAPPY MONDAY!” to everyone every week.
Look, it’s almost the weekend, I get it. There’s a reason to be positive. Don’t take away from the weekend though and celebrate Friday. That’s just premature. A little like counting your chickens before they hatch, but more like declaring the war in Iraq over while you still have troops there.
What do single people with no friends do when they have to get an operation? How about people from out of town, either as exchange students or just long term work assignments? How do you get yourself to and from a place while you’re under anesthesia? When I had to get foot surgery, It required me to go to a place off the bus route without even knowing exactly what time I needed to be there. Before this turns into a medical industry rant (fighting hard to hold it back) how can someone make this happen on their own? It just seems like there would be a huge industry for “friends for rent.” Not a professional, just a place to go or someone to help you when you need it. Drives you there, takes you home, maybe even stays at your house and watches tv while you sleep just to make sure you’re OK. I mean, it’s not even a service needed in necessity, I’d sign up just to make everything simpler logistically. None of my friends or family need to call off work, I’ll just rent a friend to take care of me that day.
Maybe there’s a need beyond medical/surgeries too. Maybe someone just needs a ride to work. Or to the repair shop to pick up their car. Things like that.
There’s no dressing that short sleeve shirt up. Face it. Your arm hair and forearms scream “I want to be comfortable!”, much louder than your tie will ever scream “take me seriously.” Really, I question the existence of short sleeved dress shirts entirely. Unless your name is Angus and you like to dress up as a catholic school boy, don’t wear them.
This probably the most impressive LEGO build I’ve ever seen. Forget the Lord of the Rings tower. This is just so awesome on so many levels. I actually think it might be my favorite build I’ve ever seen. Seriously.
Learn to fill your enjoyment meter by witnessing others having fun. Creating a fuss or scene in the context of you losing doesn’t make you win that game or any future games. It does decrease the number of losses though –by no one ever wanting to play with you again.
