Monday Mission 3.22

PromoGuy's Monday Mission 3.22

1. One thing that really annoys me is when someone at work will just start clipping their fingernails at their desk. In most cases, it is men who do this, which only makes it worse. I can't explain why this grates on my nerves, but when I hear that "click-click-click" of the clippers, I just imagine nasty fingernail fragments flying everywhere. What habit do people have that drives you crazy but doesn't seem to bother anyone else?

2. I just had to replace the compressor in my car. That was $400 I didn't have that is now gone. Have you had any expensive car trouble recently?

3. A friend of mine came over for dinner with us this recently, and brought her baby. At only 8 months he is as cute as the dickens, but when he got hungry, his momma just whipped out her boob for him to start chowin' down on. Among friends or family I can see why she wouldn't be shy, but it still made me a little uncomfortable. I realize it is a natural function and wonderful bonding experience, but I wasn't ready to be a part of it. How do you feel about mothers who breastfeed their children in public? At what age do you think they should stop?

4. I was watching the "Antiques Road Show" recently, and the resident "expert" presented the "Atari 2600" game system as a popular collectible. I am now officially OLD! Do you recall the first item from your youth that became an "antique" and made you feel old and how you felt? Or if it hasn't happened, yet, what item do you think it will be and how do you expect it to make you feel?

5. It started raining last night as I was going to bed. Not storming or a hard rain, just a nice rainfall. The pitter-patter of raindrops hitting the window made for a peaceful way to drift to sleep (and also made it hard to wake up this morning). Do you like rainy days/nights? What type of weather makes you feel relaxed?

6. We used to joke about the retired couple across the street. Every night, they would pull out their lawn chairs, sit in their driveway and watch the world go by. We laughed about how someone would just waste away their life like that. Now 8 years later, I pull out the lawn chairs and we find ourselves doing exactly the same thing. Life has a way of making one humble. Have you ever found that you have become that which you once ridiculed?

7. Have you ever sent an e-mail to the wrong person? What was the most embarrassing experience you remember?

BONUS: You know, you got me spellbound what else can it be?

In the NFL they fake injuries to get an injury time-out. So I'm going to lay here and take a rest and pretend I'm hurt. Then when I jump up and walk out to the court, the crowd will cheer!

Posted by: Jo-Ann at June 2, 2003 10:13 AM

"Man, she hit that tennis ball really hard, but why why why did you jump up as she hit it?" And my MM will be up shortly.

Posted by: dargie at June 2, 2003 12:43 PM

It's up. And I'm still debating on the best caption. My mind is engulfed in possibilities.

Posted by: Naked Jay at June 2, 2003 2:48 PM

got mine up! I'm too tired to think of a witty caption though. :(

Posted by: chrystal at June 2, 2003 3:10 PM

"mommy...."

eh. not so good with jokes like this. Anyway, the MM is up.

Posted by: Jennifer at June 2, 2003 3:31 PM

Most of these comments are lame. C'mon people! Let's get funny!

Unfortunately, I have a headache and can't think of anything clever enough to put down as a caption to that picture (and there's something obvious to say about it, I know, and I just can't think of it...but it's probably perverted). So, I'm not even going to embarrass myself by trying.

Oh yeah. My Monday Mission is up.

Caption: Tennis players take teamwork very literally.

Posted by: Ryan at June 2, 2003 4:13 PM

My Mission is up and as for the caption(which is also on my site)...

"I told you it would itch if you shaved it...but nooooo. Now move your hand so I can apply the Calamine."

Not the greatest I know...but it was worth a shot.

Posted by: Rich at June 2, 2003 4:17 PM

My photo caption: Swaziland's absolute monarch has singled out women wearing trousers as the cause of the world's ills in a state radio sermon. Here the King is shown demonstrating the benefits of short skirts.

I can't stand it when people clip their fingernails at their desk either...it's nice to know that it annoys someone besides me :)

Posted by: Beth at June 3, 2003 8:15 AM
