Things That Are Dumb, Part Two

You may remember my original post on things that are dumb. Here is the follow-up.

Invalid Last Name

Well that was quite rude.

The same thing happens when I try to enter my school assigned e-mail address, which also contains an apostrophe, into school-related logins.

Apostrophes rock. That's why my last name is cooler than your last name.


Dogs That Pee On Your Leg

To be fair, we made him hold it for 10 hours, and then he was just so excited to see me. I didn't even yell at him. I think he was just embarrassed.

It truly is my "Weekly Planner." I know what I'm wearing everyday and my plans for Saturday are marked. Get with the program, Nashville.


Waking up at 5:45 AM

I think this picture says it all.



20 Yard Entrance Ramps onto the Interstate

You know those ramps where you just turn right for days, go in a big circle, and then somehow end up going a different direction? Now imagine you're trying to get on the interstate from a road with a 35 mph speed limit. You turn right for ages, only going 10 mph, because if you go any faster than that, you're in the ditch. Now you finally reach the bottom of the ramp and are ready to merge on to the interstate. BUT WAIT! You have EXACTLY 20 yards to accelerate to 70 mph and merge into traffic. And no one moves over for you.

That is the ramp Chris and I use to get on I-24 from our house every day.

If you go several days without hearing from us, you can probably find us in the Briley Parkway ditch.

Fortunately, Chris and I have developed an INTERSTATE DRIVING MANUAL for Nashvillians. We're still working the kinks out, but as soon as it's ready, prepare to have your mind blown. We will establish the rules of each interstate lane and explain how to not run people off the road. You didn't even know you were a bad interstate driver. Until now.
