a conversation between me and the grocery bagger

him, as he's bagging my groceries: "you tired?"
me: "yep"
him: "me too. long day. but i think i still have a few drinks in me. and i'm not talking about no budweiser stuff either. i'm talking about the HARD stuff."
me: "have a good night."

scene.

I was shocked at the existence of 10 comments, and now... Now I understand. Kudos to the comments. And the story ain't so bad neither.

Mikkele, I think your blog should just be comments. Written by Kevin. Kevin, would you like to comment on my blog too? It would make it WAY more interesting.

Joeley: Thanks, I was pretty sure my arm was going to fall off if my fist didn't get bumped soon!

I like how the comment section of this post has become like our own personal twitter feed.

@randomtweeter: I'm totally watching #tv with my #cat #purple #monkey #dishwasher!

Personally, I like when people I have no interest in tell me way more about themselves than could ever be relevant, because it reminds me that it's good to avoid strangers, like my mother always told me.

i prefer this story, which mikkele observed almost a year ago at ralphs:

grocer (flipping through produce guide): hmmm...i'm having trouble finding the price of horseradish in here.
customer: pretty sure it's a vegetable, are you looking in there?
old man in line: you should probably look under the meat. horseradish. meat.

p.s. splen...wait for it...i hope you don't think i didn't because the second half of this word is DID!

Kevin Bringard said...

This is perhaps the greatest thread of comments since the first! time someone put "FIRST!"

Emily: bravo on the splen... did... bravo. I lolled until my sides hurt and I could lol no more.
