Case 1:
Walking to the parkade with classmates at the end of school, we are accosted by two young men with a video camera.
They say they are doing a segment on the parking situation and want to know if we have any opinions.
Carli and Emily give a firm "No thanks!" and continue walking, and despite the fact I'd spent the entire day feeling like an ugly scrub, I apparently couldn't resist the camera and said OKAY :D
I don't know what to say, so Carli gives me a few lines and I spew them out with the same grace as a parrot repeating phrases for crackers.
Nevertheless, I state my case gracefully, but then
because I am impossibly and hopelessly awkward, I do that STUPID FINGER-FUN POINT at the camera and give a lil' wink.
HONESTLY?????
I hope they edit that shit out. I just can't stop myself.
Case 2:
Today in my cardiovascular class we're discussing something I obviously didn't retain enough to make this story relevant.
ALRIGHT SO ANYWAY
We're discussing combining two things to create something else, and my instructor seems to think this is an appropriate time to make a digimon reference.
WOW.
He asks if anyone in the class ever played with digimon cards, because there's apparently some move called "Digibind" where you combine two of the cards together. HOW DOES HE KNOW THIS?
Eager beaver that I am, I thrust my hand into the air.
"You played digimon cards?" my instructor asks.
"Oh.. no," I correct, as I place an eschewing hand in the air, "I only played pokemon."
"Oh wow, so you had the Charizard card then I guess," he jokes.
"Holographic, even," I say, but he isn't paying attention anymore.
"What was that? Nevermind, it doesn't matter."
"First edition, even..." I say
"Alright getting back to the lesson.."
What really blows my mind though, aside from the fact I talked with my college instructor about pokemon in front of the entire class, is that he's gotta be pushing 50 and somehow knows what digimon is.
I give this blog entry 4/10 on the funny scale today.
