When two things contradict, I know one is a joke and one isn't, but I can't seem to figure out which is which. So I overthink it. Grrrr.

I hate texting and emailing for this very reason. I always read my emails at work aloud before I send them and then think I sound like a dick, but sometimes there's just no way around it. Just take comfort in the fact that the dude probably took a good couple of minutes to type out his text and still thought it sounded ######ed after he sent it to you.

I learned today that snakes don't dislocate their jaws to swallow large prey. For years I thought they did.

Really!? I could have sworn they did, I would have placed money on a bet. Where did you here this?

At a reptile zoo today. Herpetologist was going off on one about how schools and textbooks still teach this although it's been apparently known for years that they hinge their jaws.

Then fed a rat to a reticulated python to prove his point.

The last couple of months I watched the entire 'The Sopranos' series (absolutely amazing television show). Two weeks ago I watched the final episode and since I've been at arms with myself trying to figure out if I loved the ending or hated it. I've watched the famous 'final scene' over 20 times in the last couple of weeks. Read articles and opinions from a number of sources, just now after watching it yet again I've come decision that I really do love how it ended and after letting it sink in I realize how brilliant it is.

Man..is it a bad that I knew every word to that song as soon as I knew the name of it? MMMM you touch my tra-la-la...mmm my ding ding dong... haha I need to get a life.

Also, is it bad that me and my cousins looked into hiring Gunter for a night? It was only 10 g's when we checked it out haha.

No... because I also know every word of it... without even looking at the name and as soon as the music started.

Except that he's in Switzerland right now. Maybe today we'll sort it out.

There was a disturbance in the space/time continuum.....every instinct in my body screamed 'Dont touch it!'

But I had to touch it....and here we are again, I believe I've torn a hole in the very fabric of the server's software....

Our EQ Just Ate Your IQ

Fast Food | Wisconsin, USA
(Our restaurant is in walking distance of an assisted living center so many of regulars are special needs adults. We get a regular group of four people who have to make their order the same way every time. The routine involves the four of them reading the menu board for about five minutes and then one of them ordering each of them a hamburger individually.)
Me: “Hey! What can I get you?”
Special Needs Adult: “I would like a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger.”
(An agitated customer who has been standing in line behind the group the entire time chimes in.)
Customer: “He would like four hamburgers. Can we hurry this up?”
Special Needs Adult: “No! I would like a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger.”
Customer: “Oh my god!”
Me: “So if I got this right you would like a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger and a hamburger?”
Special Needs Adult: “Yes, that’s right!”
Me: “You know what I think you need? A high five!”
Special Needs Adult: “You know I do!”
(I high five the guy over the counter and the other three all take a turn getting a high five.)
Customer: “This is just ridiculous!” *storms out of the store*

I would recommend it if it was more reliable. There are still some kinks they need to work out, otherwise, skype is really good.
