Welcome to the Random Thought Thread (main page)! Pretty self-explanatory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ During my ~monthly check of Facebook: "Wait, am I friends with LazBro on here?"

I spent some time with my family this weekend at a lake. Which now means a big up tick in the amount of shirtless pictures of me on Facebook. So that's fun.

I'm really perplexed right now.
I took my car to the mechanic my parents have been using for 25+ years this morning (I asked my dad to look at the papers from the dealership's service center yesterday because they involved a lot of "you need this done too but we didn't do it"; he showed them to the mechanic who told him he could take a look and see what I actually need done and that it would be much cheaper at his place anyway) which is just about 5 minutes around the corner, more or less. I got into the passenger side of my car so another mechanic could drop me back home and found a silver key stamped with the Lowe's logo on one side and 66 on another. No key chain. Just a single key, like for a house or a shed or storage.
It wasn't the mechanic's. So I called the service center to see if anyone reported a key missing. Nope. Then I called the tow company I used on Saturday; the dispatcher called the guy who towed my car and he had all his keys.
So I have a weird house key with no identifying information on my desk at home, and no idea to whom it belongs. What the fuck?

I'd wondered why it seemed so much hotter at Facebook this week... EDITED TO ADD: I am not actually on Facebook, and don't understand how it works. Clearly.

Facebook is really just the most efficient way to make sure all of you friends, family, high school classmates, current and former coworkers, and random people that you're pretty sure you know who they are but can't place why you know them see unflattering pictures your mom took of you in your swim suit. Also, checking in to see how happy a former crush is with their stupid spouse and babies.

At lunch today I got a fortune cookie with no fortune in it. That's not good, is it?

When you think about it, the fox from Fox in Socks is probably the greatest tragic hero in all of 20th Century Literature.

There was a commercial a few years ago, I think it was for Big Brother Canada, where one of the...uh, contestants? said to another contestant "you're a psychopath bro!"
But the cadence of the way he said it was really interesting, and it pops into my head sometimes. Now I can't find a clip of it anywhere. I wonder if it was a different show, or if I just imagined it.

I wonder if it was a different show, or if I just imagined it. Is it possible that the actual legal name of this contestant was Albert Psychopath, and so what the other guy meant by this comment was "You're A. Psychopath, bro!" as in like, an acknowledgement that he knew the name of Mr. Albert Psychopath? Like maybe the other contestants were concerned that this other guy didn't even know people's names, and Albert Psychopath was like "Hey man, do you even know my name?" and the other guy was just like "You're A. Psychopath, bro!"

I have no problem with the picture, really, but Sir is ... a ridiculous name for a child. Or anyone.

Last week, when driving to the gym, I noticed a dude standing in the cross walk wearing what looked to be a scarf. Now, it was in the mid-80s so it was pretty hot to be wearing a scarf which piqued my interest. As I got closer I saw that it wasn't a scarf at all be a big, yellow boa constrictor draped jauntily around his neck. Man, I can't keep up with all of these new hipster fashion trends.

I'm in a noisy pub, with one person I know and 3 I don't, all trying to cobble together a script for the 48 hour Film competition.

I'm in a noisy pub, with one person I know and 3 I don't, all trying to cobble together a script for the 48 hour Film competition. Dammit, I gave out 3 business cards last night, with my current phone and email. We agreed on a shooting location, we agreed that it would be best to start shooting by NOW O'CLOCK. We all know there's only one car among us, so transportation has to be arranged. I've been up and about for 3 hours. No contact. I've got my lazily-slapped-together makeup kit and a bottle of fake blood ready to go! Where is everybody?

I'm with the film guys now, at lunch. Seems like a late start to me, but I've never done the 48hour Film thing before, and they have, so I'm trying not to stress.

Two 24 oz cans of High Life is the most appropriate pre-demolition derby drink, right?
