Tangents
So I just got back from a five day trip to Maine.
I enjoyed the shit out of it. What a great state. The beauteous, foliageous, big rockseousness of it was exactly what I needed after a very long stretch of uninterupted productivity at the office - I haven't taken more than one day off since last November.
1st Tangent:
It seems that everything is funnier when you can describe it as having done "the shit out of it."
For example:
"Did you see 28 Days Later?"
"Did I! Man, I saw the shit out of it."
"Have you ever eaten at Joe's?"
"Whew! I ate the shit out of Joe's."
"Are you going to church Sunday?"
"Hell yeah, I'm gonna worship the shit out of it."
Back to Maine, and the second Tangent. Okay, I'm about to attack some monstrous tasty lobster action when an interesting conversation sprouted up between my cohorts.
Excluding insects, what creature, if giantised to at least six-foot human-size, would scare the shit out of you the most?
I was just about to cast my vote for Koala when my lobster arrived. Now, put yourself on a beach, and a six or seven foot lobster comes strolling out of the surf. That would do it for me, I think.
Feel free to weigh in with other options.
Lastly, what would a post be without at least a tiny rant?
Please put these news ditties in your "Case for Impeachment" files.
