I swear, smokers are the most dedicated people in the world. Some smokers will stand outside in the freezing cold, brave snow and rain, and sweat in the humidity and heat in order to puff puff on that cigarette. Constantly buying the same item is being a dedicated customer. Smoking is not allowed in many public places, so smokers have to go outside. Abandoning a social scene for the sake of smoking takes dedication. I have seen people smoking with the car windows up, right before playing a soccer game, and even while mowing the lawn. Location and activity are non-issues. Smokers are dedicated to helping out non-smokers: pay extra tax on tobacco and won't live as long so there's a savings on social security pay outs.
Why do printers always seem to malfunction!? It seems so simple. Click the little printer icon and wait for the technological magic to happen. And wait. And wait. Is the paper jammed? Nope. Is the ink empty? Nope. Is the printer turned on? Yep. Did I actually click print? Yep. Where is my precious document? No one knows, except for the printer. And he's certainly not telling. And, don't even get me started on the stapler that is in Vat19's shipping room. It may seem virtually impossible for a one-functioned item to mess up, but it sure does.
Have you ever been playing miniature golf (a.k.a. putt-putt) and the group of people in front of you is playing incredibly slowly? Why is it that no matter how hard you try to slow yourself down and take your time, you still end up waiting for the slowpokes in front of you to finish the next hole? Seriously, those holes have like a par 2 and you only have to walk about 6 feet between strokes, so what is taking so long?
Attention drivers: please stop slowing down on the highway to look at accidents. No one likes traffic, so stop making the situation worse. A fender bender is nothing unusual or worthy of extra attention. A really bad accident might make you curious, but don't be the hated "rubberneck". If you've even been standing on the side of the road freaking out because your car just got totaled, you'll never be a jerk and slow down to stare at someone else's misfortune again. No one needs an audience at a time like that, so keep it movin'.
