Power corrupts. Cant maintain power unless people believe you know how to run their lives better than they can themselves.

I've often wondered...

why we say "Happy Memorial Day" considering what the day is supposed to recognize.

why hot dogs are in packs of 10 but the buns are only packs of 8

how you get the nickname Billy from William & Dick from Richard

who the hell thought it was a good idea to eat an onion even after it burned the shit out of their eyes

how the hell French food became the benchmark for the culinary world. I mean snails, frogs and aspic are not the most apetizing things on face value. LoL

Worked at a car lot with a guy named Richard. He told everyone to "Call me Dick for short." I heard it all day long. I finally got to where I just called him "Dick for short." It stuck. He hated it. Not nearly as bad as we hated hearing him say it a million times a day. He got really upset when we started paging him over the intercom as "Dick for short." He eventually went on to just tell everyone his name was Dick, rather than leading with Richard. Seriously, who does that. "Hi, my name is Jody. Just call me Big Rick McGhee for short."

When I was a starting lifeguard, the head guy was from a large Irish family with 5 boys, him being the youngest, last name Dickey.

We called him 'the littlest Dickey'.

I know that when I used to eat at McDonalds, if you ordered one of their strawberry and cream pies, they acted as is you just asked for the Ajanti Dagger.

Imo, the only episode that comes close to this one is Talent Show.

I've always said that about the first guy that looked at a lobster and said, " Boy, that looks delicious. I'm gonna eat that." as it was crawling towards him.

I also like what George Carlin said about lobster..." Step on that fuck before it gets to the children."

Why does fridge have a d in it and refrigerator does not have a d ??


And one of my favorites from the legendary George Carlin. Why do we say, I'm going to go take a $hit when actually I'm going to give a $hit? He then said, "If god had intended us to take a $hit he would have put a handle on it!"

I can say for a fact that I did not retain enough high school Spanish to tell a taxi driver that I wanted to be driven to the Volkswagen dealership when we were in Cozumel for a day about 15 years ago. No problem getting a rental car if that's what I wanted, but I was just interested in a VW Saveiro pickup truck brochure...because I couldn't fit an actual one in my suitcase to bring home.

I *was* able to buy prescription ear wax remover drops in a pharmacy, and could have stockpiled on dirt-cheap big blue pills if I was in the market for them.....

The way I figure it, I retained enough HS Spanish to survive in a Mexican resort. Una mas, por favor. Gracias and de nada. My spelling may suck but I’ll get by.

I'll be able to find chicken and rice, and of course a bathroom.

Funny story about my brother who didn't take a foreign language in high school. He was asked by a boss of his to volunteer transporting and setting up a float for the Puerto Rico Day parade in NYC. On his way out the door that morning, he realized that he didn't know enough Spanish to even find a bathroom. Being the good brother that I am, I handed him a paper with this written on it and told him to show it to anyone when he needed a bathroom:

"?Donde estan las putas?"

Guess I'll be able to find those as well.....
